Sorry it was a tough day and it didn't go the way you wanted.

I know you've been trying to detach. My hope is this talk is a milestone that allows you to loosen your grip on the M further still. It isn't easy to let go as the pain and loss is so powerful, but there is no getting around it.

Meanwhile really focus on taking care of yourself. Can you write us a list of things you can do without your H to make yourself feel special, valued, understood, and admired?
