Helping vs Enabling
Helping: Doing something for someone who is unable to do it for themselves.
Helping others to build personal strength and independence is giving someone a helping hand. [from SESH]

Enabling: (Doing for them to) avoid the consequences of their actions or doing for them what they can do for themselves...[from SESH]

How do we know the difference?
What things do I do for others that they are able and should be doing for themselves?
What things do I do for others because I don't think they are capable of doing them for themselves?
What things do I do for others because I am uncomfortable with their choices?
In what ways is my "helping" actually enabling?
What sort of situations would you like to discuss as to whether they are enabling or helping? ( Examples could be things like paying for rehab therapy, providing food/clothing/shelter, paying their bills/fines, transporting them, etc. )
Boundaries
Boundaries are decisions we make to keep our lives more manageable [from Nar-Anon 36]
Boundaries are healthy, personal limits I set for myself. [frp, SESH, July 21}

For a group discussion during the workshop, which of these would you like to discuss?
How have you set boundaries in your life? What were they?
What did the process - defining, setting, and sticking with a boundary - look like for you?
What was the response from the addict when a boundary was first set? How did you handle it?
Are there any boundaries that I wish I could set, but I am still having difficulty with? What are they?
