  • Wonder how you can keep your loved one in recovery

  • Stay in relationships longer than is healthy for you

  • Believe you can control someone else’s behavior

  • Have patterns of rescuing people (others’ needs)

  • Not recognizing the “unavailability” of people you try to help

  • Say YES when you want to say NO

  • Are unclear on what your needs are

  • Feeling resentful when others refuse help or advice

  • Are unable to set or maintain boundaries

  • Are exhausted, depleted, have nothing else to give

  • Exert so much time and energy into helping others that you fail to help yourself
