Taking time off for yourself is fine, especially when you are dealing with stuff that really makes it hard to deal with other people's drama.

No idea if this is applicable in your case, but I finally figured out that there was something wrong with the way I developed relationships. Every 3-4 years, I find myself wanting to 'dump' most of my friends. I always thought there was something wrong with me. There is, but it's not what I thought. I cultivate unhealthy relationships, usually with very selfish people. Wanting to avoid these people was actually a good sign

Good luck with your recovery.
