This is good advice indeed, Cadet. Is there a guide anywhere - not how to ACT detached, but how to actually start peace-out-ing and accepting?

Is it normal to have waves of supreme detachment/denial, grief, anger all in the same day?? I can't believe I am going through this again. I can hardly think straight and have no idea what I am hoping for, the little bargaining bits in my head hoping in a few months he may get his independence, his feet under him, and want to approach me for this rollercoaster again. WTH.
