Enabling Defined. In the context of alcoholism, an enabling relationship is one that makes it easier for the person with the addiction to continue in their destructive lifestyle. In most cases, enablers are well-intentioned and believe that their actions are beneficial to the alcoholic.However, the opposite is usually the case.hile it is certainly true that recovery begins within the addict, it is also important to consider the influence that others can have. The influence of enabling relationships is particularly important. Enablers can take many forms, and they are usually unaware of the negative effect they are having on the alcoholic.
For the journal, see Injury Prevention (journal). Injury prevention is an effort to prevent or reduce the severity of bodily injuries caused by external mechanisms, such as accidents, before they occur.
Secondary prevention tries to intervene and hopefully put an end to the disease before it fully develops. Primary prevention is concerned with preventing the onset of a disease, while secondary prevention tries to reduce the number of new or severe cases of a disease. Even if we can't prevent the disease from becoming overtly symptomatic, we can at least reduce its impact with secondary prevention.
