put down the crazy and back away slowly

Detachment. Often times it is necessary and in my opinion, it is always healthy. I'm glad I can apply it in my own life. Some people don't get that. They confuse it with judgment, persecution, self-righteousness, gossip, etc... and, well, that's OK. I am huge on and very vocal about emotional boundaries. I also don't fancy myself that important in someone's life that I can't walk away and let them deal with their unsavory situations. Especially those of their own making and/or choosing. (I'm talking about adults here, obviously).

To be blunt: don'tdrag me down with you.

See? Detachment.
