Quitting on people who aren't even trying isn't wrong — it's survival. Don't blame yourself, don't feel guilty, and definitely don't let anyone convince you that you were selfish. People with too much free time love to poke their noses into things they know nothing about. Only you know how much effort you poured into them. Only you know how hard you tried to support, encourage, and hold everything together. Only you know how much of yourself you destroyed in the process of saving them. So now, take all that energy back. Pour it into yourself, where it actually matters. Because choosing yourself isn't selfish - it's the smartest thing you'll ever do.
