If you knew anything about Whitney Houston beyond her musical talent, today's news was not a shock. I'm honestly surprised she lived as long as she did. It seemed Houston was incapable of not continually abusing herself. She took drugs, drank excessively, and married a man who beat her.
It makes me wonder. If someone like Houston couldn't overcome an abusive nature, what are the odds of recovery for a poor soul with the same affliction but without the same resources? Houston had plenty of money and access to the best mental health professionals. Nevertheless, in the end, nothing could save her from herself.
