Head over to the F&F forum and get a glimpse of the ghosts of christmas future.
I agree with you to some extent, but I think that op should at least try to get her help before running away. If she is not ready, then the op will hopefully know when to give up. Abandoning her right now could make things worse for her, which could end in an overdose.

I had a girlfriend who made me look at my habits a few years back. I quit for a little while, learned a little about sobriety, and realized how destructive my problems were. I was not ready to call it quits, but I gained a lot of insight and scrutinized my behavior in the time since then. I probably would not be ready to attempt sobriety if those events did not occur.
