How Long Is Too Long?
I have a character in my newest WIP that is going into drug rehab. I have to say this is my 'grittiest' work so far. I hope I'm not going too far over the edge on it. Trying to stay compasionate for the character has been tough. I wonder sometimes if it's always necessary for the main character to be compassionate throughout the book, or can you manage a time period where he/she may fall out of favor with the reader? How long would that last? Can you take it when a character you know you're supposed to root for is exhibiting traits that aren't 'rootable'? If he/she is exhonerated in the end does that work? Will you carry on the read until you get to the part where you understand?

Drug addiction is something that is not planned. A person struggling with drug addiction changes. They don't seem to be the person they used to be.

Family, work, friends are all damaged by the addiction. It isn't hopeless and it doesn't have to be.
