Scenario

When a friend group struggles to support someone in crisis without burning out

Our friend group has this one person who's been going through a really hard time for the past year, and we all want to be supportive but we're also getting exhausted and starting to avoid group hangouts. None of us wants to be the one to say we need boundaries, but we're all feeling it.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Compassion fatigue is creating resentment and avoidance when what's needed is honest conversation about sustainable support.
