Don't make any decisions when...

... you are filled with guilt and have a bad conscience. The risk is that you as a relative react very fast, rather than think over the thing for a while and act later.
Guilt and bad conscience can blur our sight of what is actually the most constructive thing to do in the situation. We might not take in all the facts and don't see the whole situation because our feelings of guilt have taken over and we want to free ourselves from them. Then it is easy to act in a way that we later regret.

It can also be the addict that projects these feelings on the relative, either because they want to achieve something or because they themselves are feeling so bad they can not stand their own feelings.
One good thing to do can be to let the thing get settled for a couple of days and instead talk to others that have experience of addiction problems. Then it is easier to make a decision that is positive in the long run.

Breathe calmly...
