The process of leaving deeply meaningful and embodied identities can be experienced as a struggle against addiction, with continuing cognitive, emotional, and physiological responses that are involuntary, unwanted, and triggered by environmental factors.

The study includes a discussion of the implications of identity residual for understanding how people leave and for theories of the self.
