Respectfully disagree. We have total control over how we react/don't react and care/don't care about what they do, think, say, etc.
Sorry Gardener - I was refering to the actions of the WAS. We can only control ourselves.
SP- Up and down we go but look how long its been since the last time you felt this bad. That gap will just get bigger and bigger between episodes of lonliness or whatever.
When I look at all those COUPLES and families I always think that I have no idea how they are feeling or living. You know that there would of been some of those "happy" families who were looking at you enviously SP.
Count your blessings - gratitude journals are great for reminding us in these down times just what we do have. Its hard to think of how good we have it when we feel like S#$%.
So jot even some words down that will remind you of your blessings but only when your feeling your mojo
