I think it is when they start to take advantage of you. Like they are actively trying to get better and they appreciate your support. Everyone has bad days even when they’re struggling. I mean like it has been months and they start acting like a child and you as their mother

You put yourself first when you start to feel like you’re loosing yourself taking care of this person. you cannot healthily take care of someone else if it’s draining you to the point you aren’t taking care of yourself
