@kalevra -- I can safely assume you have never been in a relationship with an addict. It is NOT abandonment to leave a toxic situation with an addict who has no desire to stop the behavior. Some times the only way this person decides to quit is if the partner leaves. So many people stat, acting as enablers, completely losing themselves in trying to save their partners. That is the saddest thing to experience. In health does mean something, as in, we all have to take responsibility for maintaining our health.
I often say that I do not burn bridges - I just let them rot and fall apart. But for one thing: all those people can check on *you*, too.
