Breaking the Cycle: The Brutal Realities of Leaving an Alcoholic

Breaking up with an alcoholic leaves scars nobody talks about. Here are three

brutal realities you'll face. Number one, the guilt will eat you alive.

You'll question if leaving actually made things worse. You'll replay every moment wondering if

you could have saved them. That heavy weight stays with you. Number two,

your social circle will judge you. Friends will say you gave up too easily.

The other half asks why you stayed. Family gatherings become interrogations while you

defend yourself. Number three, financial aftermath. Rebuilding from zero while they owe

money you'll never see again. Leaving means choosing yourself. It's not selfish,
