    Do you not see the mental abuse she is taking? Obviously you've never been on the other side of the addict table. You've never been the caregiver that has to suffer for a "loved one". It's a lot harder than you think and guess what else, unlike the addict's choice to start using drugs, the caregiver has no choice in the matter. It is thrown in their lap with no say so. So, her walking away to take care of herself instead of a junkie, IMO, is the smartest move for her. I'm not saying she shouldn't help him. But how can you pull someone from the bottom if you down there wit them?
