What do you prioritize?

A common order of priorities if you live with a person with addiction tend to be:

1. First, it's the drug (for the person with substance abuse problems and for the relative to think about/try to control/worry about)

2. Second, the addict themselves (to meet their needs and resolve critical situations).

3. In the best case, the relative him or herself comes in third place (if there is enough time and energy over to take care of his or her own needs).

Recognize these priorities?

In that case, is that how you want to continue to prioritize your life? Or do you want to rearrange the order of priorities?
