Are You Helping Or Rescuing?
What’s the difference between helping someone and rescuing them?
Helping empowers them to rise.
Rescuing keeps them dependent on your strength.
One comes from love.
The other comes from guilt, fear, or the need to be needed.
⚠️When you are always rescuing, you teach people to abandon their own power, and you abandon yours in the process.
This is how resentment and burnout begin.
Sometimes physical health issues come next.
Helping says: I believe you can handle this.
Rescuing says: I don’t trust that you can.
If you have been the "fixer" your whole life, always stepping in to hold everything together, it may be time to break that pattern.
💯You can still be compassionate without carrying someone else’s healing.
You can love without losing yourself.
