Balancing Harm Reduction and Boundaries: A Deep Dive with Steve Weiss

Believe me, I would have done it a lot earlier. Now, if the person is getting, as we say in steps, sick and tired of being sick and tired on their own, the enabler may still be enabling, but the person saying I'm done, I don't want to live like this anymore, and that comes, that's actually a good outcome because it comes from internal as opposed to an external response.
Imagine trying to find the right balance between helping someone with an addiction and not enabling their harmful behavior. That's exactly what Tyler Tisdale and Steve Weiss tackle in this thought-provoking episode of 'Facing Addiction'. Steve, the Clinical Director at Pinnacle Peak Recovery, shares his journey from battling addiction to becoming a key figure in behavioral health. His passion for keeping people alive and healthy shines through as he discusses harm reduction and the crucial role boundaries play in recovery.
Tyler and Steve delve into why professional help is vital and how different types of addiction go beyond just substance abuse. They don't shy away from the tough topics, like the impact of enabling behaviors on relationships. Steve’s firsthand experiences provide a raw and real perspective, making this episode a must-listen for anyone navigating the rocky road of addiction recovery.
Whether you're supporting a loved one or on your own path to sobriety, the insights and practical advice shared here offer a beacon of hope. You'll walk away with a better understanding of how to set healthy boundaries and why it's essential for both the individual struggling with addiction and those around them.
