Corey, I think what you're writing about is kind of common. Doesn't she even talk about that in DR? That couples start piecing and the LBS works hard for months or years, and then when they starting piecing, the LBS starts feeling all those emotions we kind of put a lid on when we were DBing so heavily. I'm pretty sure there's a chapter on that. Maybe that would be good for a reread?
I'm also pretty sure, from what other posters have said, that the irritable, withdrawal cranky type behavior is from the WAS going through withdrawal. I think a lot of them are literally addicts and going through that withdrawal is tough; although believe me you KNOW I'm on your side. I just think if you can just DB just a tiny bit longer, you can always give up, but you don't want to look back and say maybe I should have waited another month or something later on in life. But you need to do what you need to do. Maybe some fun or galing or something like that just to get your mind off your problems? ((((((Corey)))))
