Lost. Say hi. My S says "I am going to be the hi guy today". And he says hi to everyone he sees. I tried it and it was a blast. I felt awkward at first and then after a little while it felt great to say Hi to everyone. I was in a much better mood. I try it everyday now. It works wonders to see other people smiled because you said Hi.
You are a man of enormous Mental strength to stay calm in your sitch. Mine is pale in comparison. Hang in there.
