Yeah, something my mom always would say is she'd say, tough love doesn't work. And that was – I didn't give tough love. That's not part of who I am. But to other people around her who would try and, like, enforce things. Yeah. And I really agree with that. Like, I don't think that personally, like – unless the person is really causing harm –

or is a threat to you and your safety or, you know, then it's very different in addiction. But I never withdrew love in moments of, you know, difficulty through addiction. And I really believe that, you know, I think there's a lot of like when you watch those TV shows that are like about

You know, whatever addicts and stuff and they're dragging them out of, you know, these are human beings that are in pain. Yeah. So I think that always operating from a place of empathy to me was always felt right.

Yeah. It was a really strange experience because I never was, we were never having the same experience. Like in my experience, I was always being very, I was being firm, but I was always very gentle. And to them, it was like, you're making me feel so bad. Like they took it, everything was really, was received really intensely. And it wasn't my experience.

I really leaned on people who had had similar experiences because it felt so isolating. I had friends who had lost... loved ones in various ways. And I found that to be the most comforting because I just wanted them to tell me that I was going to be okay, you know, from someone who'd experienced it and say, like, you're going to survive this.
