Stay strong!!! You have us if you need to vent, get something off your chest, talk, etc. You have been so helpful for many of us here -- now be helpful for you and your M. Weather this new emotional storm. The sun will shine again soon, and you will be much happier and proud of yourself that you toughed it out. Whatever it is that has got you down, I'm sure it is taking its toll on you. However, I know that you can get through this without contacting OM. As you've already said, it is the last thing you need to do -- so find an appropriate way to deal with what you're currently facing.
