Agreed.

I like to act as if the M will improve soon, as in a few months or so. This gives me the hope I need to carry on. If things don't turn around by then, I'll deal with it at that time.

Holding on to the hope that we will get through this, and have a better M is key for me. I can't do that if I think it'll take YEARS.

Besides, thinking positive makes it more likely to HAPPEN.

Crisis: 5 years.
