I agree with the others. I think if you back off and let it go, you'll be fine. I know it must be very hard to have those little voices in your ear saying those incredibly negative things. That's why you have us. Remember that everyone out there does not know the rules for DBing and therefore cannot give appropriate advice. I know that's why I've tried to keep who's in the know on my situation to a calculated minimum. Even then, those who know are beginning to become weary of the situation. Remember that while those people love you, they do not like seeing you in pain, and will tell you all kinds of things in order to make THEM feel less bad for you. It doesn't necessarily mean it helps YOU, it helps THEM. You may need to create filters for each person and say to yourself, "while I know that was meant to be supportive, that person is talking out of their a$$ and doesn't know the rules. I'll just nod and smile."
