The RESCUER Syndrome

Like an addiction, as bad as heroin,
feeling responsible for how other people are feeling
(the rescuer compulsion)
is like being under a bad spell
you have to allow people to have their bad times
you are violating a boundary in trying to make their
journey perfect
when others are upset
it's actually YOU 
YOU are the one who's upset!

the problem is you!
IT's YOUR comfort zone that's a problem!
what you can do?
get a grip on yourself
leave them alone
become ok with other people being unhappy
develop a stronger gut
you need to be able to endure other people on their life journey
without being uncomfortable
because you are too vulnerable like that!!
