HI there. The thing I hear most in your post is a desire to be supportive. As important things for being supportive are being there and caring, I suspect that you are probably already being more supportive than you are aware, because I can see how you care for this person. You are giving someone your time and energy, which is a great gift.
There's a community here on 7 cups for addiction support. That's probably a great place to find ideas.

And it's a cliche, but I find it is true, we can best help others when we help ourselves first. So to be the best support to your loved one, consider ways that you can best look after yourself. I congratulate you for coming here and seeking support by making this post and hope you find what you need here. I wish you the best.
