I should include a reminder that things don't have to stay this way for her. She can change, people change all the time. The problems she has right now won't define her so much as the way she chooses to deal with them. I think I've done about as much as I possibly could in helping her make better decisions, but there's admittedly a compulsion to do more somehow. As it stands I can only hope she reflects on my advice with less of a biased glance and manages to shed her current conflicts and continue her life with valuable lessons learned from it all. Stronger and wiser for all the struggles she's endured.
