What do you do when someone you love is struggling with addiction?

What do you do when someone you love is addicted—and nothing you’ve tried has worked?

Maria’s story is heartbreaking, but not uncommon. She loves her boyfriend deeply, but addiction has changed him. The lies, the tears, the broken promises… they all follow a painful pattern.

In this video, I break down how good-hearted people often get trapped trying to “rescue” someone who isn’t ready to get help—and how love without boundaries can unintentionally keep addiction alive.

If you’ve ever:

Confronted someone who’s using, only to be met with more lies

Held someone while they sobbed, swearing they’ll change

Felt stuck between helping and enabling

Wondered why your love isn’t enough

This video is for you.

🛑 You are not alone. But things won’t change until there’s a shift—from secrecy to action, from rescue to responsibility, from hoping to healing.
