It's about shifting of responsibilities. I would make suggestions to my toxic family member trying to help her solve her own problems, but she kept giving me excuses as to why each and every one of my suggestions would not work. I eventually figured it out that she wanted me to do things for her, rather than have me help her with helping herself.

I stopped walking around in the same circle with her, and now I feel less dizzy.
