Good Day Everyone!  My name is Anthony Hopkins and I am responsible for enabling other people for more than a half of a century.  I remember when I was a child, I used to help others with their homework for school.  I am getting very honest with myself and others about enabling behavior.  I have been clean and sober for 33 years now.  I rarely ask anyone else for help.

Next, I am letting all of you know that I am guilty of enabling other people.  What is the definition of enabling?  Enabling is when someone is doing something that other people can do for themselves.  At one point in my life, I was coerced bu other people to do something for someone else.  The fair weather friends that I had were using me.  My family members told me to my face that people were taking advantage of me.  At that time, I had concealed the person and the whole problem.  I have a fair weather friend that still ask me to do things for him.  I didn’t know that this behavior was getting worse because I was always broke financially.
