Because of continuing subsatnce addiction and abuse by Slash, Duff and Matt:
What do you think is the reason that Guns N' Roses ended up separating? Do you think that the drugs played a great role in the breakup of the band?
Izzy: "I don't know if the drugs were the reason. When I left the band, I was completely clean for two and a half years, from 1989 on. And when I was myself again, I really didn't know what happened, because I wasn't there any longer."
But, the drug consumption in the band caused you to make the decision to leave?
Izzy: "Yes. As I told you, I was clean for two and a half years already. I was seeing how my friends were dying, and after some time of that I decided that I'd had enough. I didn't want to continue being a part of that. Now we're all clean, and that's great."
He was also frustrated with Axl and his antics. Showing up late, not wanting to play, his tardiness at shows cost the band 100's of thousands of dollars which Axl expect all band members to share. Axl became an egomaniac. Unbearable.

Why isn't Izzy featured at all in the Guns N' Roses video for Don't Cry?
Izzy Stradlin had quit the band by then, or was at least pondering it. He has never liked being in publicity shoots, or being in music videos. He "found them stupid". I guess you can't blame him, he's a very reserved person who obviously values his privacy.
