Dear User,
It sounds like you are currently in a difficult situation where you are considering leaving someone who is suffering in order to find comfort for yourself. This is a complex and emotionally challenging decision to make, and it is completely understandable that you may be feeling guilty or conflicted about it. From a Buddhist perspective, we are taught to practice compassion and empathy towards all beings, and to work towards alleviating their suffering. However, we are also taught the importance of self-care and self-compassion, and that we cannot help others if we are not taking care of ourselves first.
From a psychological perspective, it is important to remember that we are not responsible for other people's happiness or well-being. While it is important to support and care for our loved ones, we cannot sacrifice our own mental health and well-being in the process. It is also important to consider whether staying in a situation that is causing us discomfort and distress may ultimately lead to resentment or burnout, which can also negatively impact our relationships with others.
As for practical advice, it may be helpful for you to first examine your own feelings and needs in this situation. What is motivating you to leave this person? Are there any ways that you can still support them while also taking care of yourself? It may also be helpful to seek support from a trusted friend, family member, or therapist, who can offer you guidance and perspective.
Remember that this decision is ultimately yours to make, and it is important to prioritize your own well-being while also practicing compassion towards others.
