['Well my partner fell off the wagon lately and went back to people that are really bad for him. He has bipolar etc so his influences are really crutial.']
That sounds awful. Mine used to have a bad group of friends too at one point so I know how it feels. Sometimes you just want to yell grow up!!!
I was disappointed when my bf fell off the wagon and started acting up again. He went back to his old life for a moment.
