Congratulations on the job - even if it is not the field you wanted, it sounds like it is beneficial for your situation right now. And it will get you in a new environment which may help, too!
I also wanted to say how much I admire your sense of humour through all of this. Right now Eeyore sounds happier than I do - which is a 180 for me in the wrong direction. I am working on it!
It sometimes seems to be as if I have entered a parallel universe of sorts, it is that disconcerting to me. I never would have laid bets that my SO would betray me nor would I have predicted that I would become "that girl" who is still sad four months later. HUH? But I think that whatever universe we ended up in, we are stronger than we think and that the continued kindness of strangers in a world that seems a bit bleak is the biggest blessing of all.
