Focus nr 1: Your needs!

As a relative, it's easy to forget your own needs. Of love, care and fear, we are often more focused on saving and taking care of someone else's needs. Perhaps we notice too late that we have breached our own needs, which leads to that we one day stand there completely exhausted. In the worst cases we have also failed our own needs and health such as our diet, exercise and sleep. We may even have got into financial trouble because we have focused on helping someone else's economy. If you stand in this situation, or feel that you are on your way there, these questions can be helpful for you:

* What are your needs that need to be taken care of for you to feel good?

* What do you do now to take care of your own needs?

* What do you need to prioritize to take care of your needs?

* What do you prioritize away to take care of your needs?

* What can you do today that will give you the opportunity to care for any of your needs tomorrow?

* Are there things you need to do, information to find, contact with other people (ex. doctors, therapists, financial advisors or other) that you need to address in order to take care of your needs?

* What are your needs that you need to prioritize first? What is your first step to take care of the most important need right now?

* What can you do right now, at this moment, to take care of your needs?

Enabling addiction

This short video show us what we unconsciously might do to enable our relatives addiction, for example; giving him/her money without knowing what's it for, helping him/her with things that she/he can't do because of the addiction or avoiding talking to him/her about the problem.
