There are two aspects I know to be true when it comes to recovery from addiction:
#1 – Enabling and helping are very different actions;
and
#2 – If nothing changes, nothing changes.

When we continue to enable an addict, we basically assist them to remain in active addiction. I don’t see that as a loving act and if we are enabling, we need to learn how to stop doing that. When we help an addict, we tell them the truth and change our own behaviours, which gives them a fighting chance of recovery.

We need to love our addicts enough to stop supporting them in their addiction and instead to only support recovery.

We need to stop loving our addicts to death – and start loving them to life.

We need to learn the difference between enabling and helping, and this ebook outlines the difference.
