AtlataDave, You should not leave this board because at times you will need to vent and we are here to soak it up and sympathise. If you vent to your W (as I do regularly though less often since joining this forum) you take a giant leap backwards. Controlling anger and frustration (I am 22 years into my SSM) is difficult for me and being able to vent here is a life saver. If you are the sort (like me and hairdog) that has sleepless nights constructing complicated monlogues in your head then write them here and get some sleep instead. SD
