I was a rescuer for 47 years. I spent those years ignoring my own problems and trying to rescue everyone else. I had been socially programmed to be a rescuer by my family. Rescuing was part of my family-culture and ran through our DNA going back at least four generations.

My rescuing behaviors cost me two marriages, both ending in divorce, and left me burned-out and broke without food for my children on Christmas Eve.
