Quick Question- Why would Rumple inflict himself with the power that alsmot killed him?

I have an answer. Besides the "protect my heart spell" gibberish, he's an addict and no matter how much it hurts, he'll always do it.

I actually buy it and think that only his love for Bae ever had a chance to save him.
