Dom oh man do I know what you are feeling. It's hard for us that have been at this a long, long time. At some point we do have to ask ourselves that question we've not wanted to address, when is enough, enough? Only we know when that point is for us, no one else can tell us when.
So if you think you are getting to that point ask yourself a few simple questions before you do something you later regret. 1) Is this me or frustration/anger/bitterness talking? 2) What is it I really am wanting to achieve? 3) Is giving up really the answer? and 4) What are the positives and negatives of our situation?
Lastly, I can't recall if you ever did dig deep into the MLC stuff, if you haven't it may be a good idea to dig in and educate yourself. I say this because my impression is MLC is a long process and it takes a lot of strength for the LBS to stand.
If we really want to love, we must learn how to forgive. - Mother Theresa
