I think we can cling to the hope when we are overwhelmed...and that is what hope is for! Motivation to keep moving. BUT, like Coach says, you can handle it. I mean, you ARE. I remember getting to that point maybe 6 months ago? I was like "I am doing this...I CAN do this...I don't like it but I am adjusting to my new life."
But your advice to G is what will help you as well--her H is all over the place so she should worry about herself...
