In my own opinion I really don’t think the religious part of “for better or worse” that any G*D meant to suffer at the hands of anyone else especially someone who claims to love you.
Unconditional love does not mean that we unconditionally accept bad behavior. Love without boundaries......is not love.
In nature....there is no punishment.....only consequences. When an addict choses (and it is a choice) not to participate in getting well, there are consequences.
That is the baffling and cunning part of addiction. Addiction is a disease. Recovery is a choice.
