too far gone
Beyond all help
Too far gone describes someone or something past the point of recovery or rescue.
A person too far gone with addiction or illness cannot be helped; a relationship too far gone cannot be repaired.
The phrase implies a threshold has been crossed: By the time we found him, he was too far gone.
It often carries a note of regret or resignation.
