Addiction, Codependency & Love Martyrs | Why Saving Them Is Destroying You

SoulWords—Rabbi Shais Taub 2,932 views

You can love someone so much that you destroy yourself trying to save them. In this video, Rabbi Taub dives deep into the painful reality of codependency and the “love martyr” mindsetm... the belief that you can fix, save, or heal someone you love, even if it costs you everything. When addiction or dysfunction takes hold of a loved one, it’s easy to put your own life on hold, convincing yourself that your purpose is to rescue them. But in the process, you risk losing your own health, happiness, and identity. #Codependency #AddictionRecovery #FamilyHealing #Recovery #AddictionHelp #RelationshipBoundaries --- *For more classes from Rabbi Shais Taub:* 🌐 *Website:* https://www.soulwords.org/ *Follow Rabbi Shais Taub:* 📸 *Instagram:* https://www.instagram.com/rabbi_shais_taub 🎥 *TikTok:* https://www.tiktok.com/@rabbi_shais_taub 🐦 *X (Twitter):* https://www.x.com/ShaisTaub 📘 *Facebook:* https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61573478244968 💼 *LinkedIn:* https://www.linkedin.com/in/shais-taub-81a95466/ 🎧 *Listen to the SoulWords Podcast:* 🎵 *Spotify:* https://open.spotify.com/show/51E7XHWFDbZCGJQz7CoAZP 🍏 *Apple Podcasts:* https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/soulwords-full-library/id1450892501 *Support Our Work:* 💳 *Donate:* https://www.soulwords.org/donate/ 💰 *PayPal:* https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/soulwordspayments 💵 *CashApp:* https://cash.app/$soulwords 🪙 *Venmo:* https://venmo.com/u/soulwords *About SoulWords:* SoulWords is a virtual community hosted by Rabbi Shais Taub, where people come together to explore the spiritual insights of Torah and discover their unique purpose.
