PON, I might have some suggestions as to reading up more on MLC. Obviously, Dr. Google can be a great indexing resource.
That said, remember that MLC is not a DSM-V affliction. Opinions vary greatly on how to deal with MLC specifically as well as those who look only at symptoms and think that fixing the symptom will resolve what ever the person is "going through".
MLC is an internal, often emotional crises that is deeply rooted in cognitive dissonance, which can often show up as DSM-V afflictions, yet are not prior nor chronic issues.
It is my opinion and my recommendation for a person who is dealing with someone in MLC, to understand that MLC includes the word "crises" and is in many ways, a chaotic form of a "normal"... "Life Transition" which can also be a great things to research and understand.
Hope that helps. Keep detaching and GALing. Your 180s are great, just remember that the are FOR YOU, regardless of whether the M is saved.
