It's the other stuff I don't want to help with. I guess you're right I'm enabling.
You might as well be the crack dealer who makes home deliveries.

I'm trying to wean him off me now and get him to reach out and rely on others. I just can't cut off all support. I know this whole thing just is a mess.
Who else is going to pay his rent, buy him food and clean his house once he's blown his disability check on crack?

Until he's cut off, he has absolutely no reason to remotely consider other alternatives.
