Scenario

When family members with mental health struggles enable each other

My adult daughter and I both struggle with depression and we've fallen into this pattern where we try to take care of each other but end up making it worse, and neither of us knows how to break the cycle without abandoning the other.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people's care for each other has become entangled with their individual healing in ways that serve neither.
