Something just happened to me. For the first time in months I was like "What just happened to my life???". I was such a worry free soul all my life, enjoying the moments, my friends and family. Everything that happened the last few month has this big FOG over it. Everything was so cramped and forced and confused and everything.
Was that similar in your sitch? Life falling apart and the fog just takes over. We can't think clear. When it lifts everything is still super sad but you start to see light. Of course you still have hope, because you are sure you WAS also got lost in the fog. DB continues but you might actually be able to breathe again and you can "watch" everythinv from above, if you know what I mean. Your ability for judgement is coming back. Still going to be a long journey.
Like 25yrs said, the biggest personal challenge I have is forgiving myself ...
You will get your mental clarity "fogged" when you listen to and accomidate a WAS who is lying to you and is also only looking out for themselves.
It weakens your mind, you do it out of love automatically, but your mind knows. You get clarity when you remove or back up friends who are no longer being good friends anymore.
You will be OK if you take on a list of goals for yourself outside of her and work to achieve them.
