Scenario

When supporting a struggling friend becomes unsustainable for the group

Our friend group has one person who's been going through a really hard time for over a year and we all want to support them, but they've become increasingly difficult to be around and some of us are starting to feel resentful. We don't know how to address it without seeming heartless.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

People who care about someone are hitting the limits of their capacity to help while that person's needs continue to exceed what they can provide.
