Fine Line?

Today, I had to watch someone I care about very much, go through an anxiety attack because of the person she is dating. And I found myself in a very difficult position. I felt that I needed to help her calm down, but at the same time, it wasn’t my place to intervene. This made me wonder... At what point should one intervene? Although it is not affecting me directly, it is still affecting someone I care for. One wouldn’t let someone they care for with an eating disorder just continue having an eating disorder. They would intervene. So, where is the fine line?
