Hello Molly, I am working through some of my own drama right now. I am not up to posting much. I do not think I can offer different perspective than what has been posted.
Breathe, begin to follow what has been posted, work on you, repeat what works for you.
Regarding the mechanics of posting in the examples below where ever you see a “{“ use a “[“, where ever you see a “}” use a “]” They are the same key on a QWERTY keyboard. You can also use the quote and quick quote buttons at the bottom of each post for some of this, but I find it easier to use a word doc, cutting and pasting as needed easier. Spell check in Word is also nice.

Do not get wrapped around the axle with the mechanics of posting, start simple, expand as your comfort level goes.
Do not get wrapped around the axle with the mechanic of DB’ing, start simple, expand as you confidence grows. There is no one phrase or action that will turn it around. It is almost a cliché here, but the phrase “It is a marathon not a sprint” is true.
This could be perceived as my arrogance speaking, but when I began to believe I was becoming the person only a fool would leave tomorrow got easier.
