BaB...this is a loaded question, one I can't really give a short answer to. But I'll try.
What my experience with addiction has done is hardened me regarding situations that may come up in my day to day life. What I may have tolerated in the past in terms of other people's behavior is behavior I no longer tolerate. And to steal Vale's words --without feeling the slightest remorse.
At the same time, I've learned I really need to be thankful for the gifts I have and the people that are in my life.
