Hello CH76!

Welcome to SR!

I think it is a sweet gesture to be there for her, but I agree with Lexi 1000%. Go to work, give her space, and watch for what will happen. If you wanted to show support, keep it simple like cooking dinner one night or maybe offering to keep the little critter occupied and out of her hair for a break?

Sadly a lot of addicts relapse right off. She likely will be quite uncertain and unclear about the relationship such that you will grate on each other just by breathing. We enablers - we are quite lost ourselves when our roles are possibly no longer the same.

And her parents? Are they underfoot too?

Early recovery could be purgatory. We are all lost souls unsure about how much penance, forgiveness and soul searching is required for freedom...
