I am sorry she wasn't thrilled for you like you would have liked. It is dissappointing, but that is a reflection of her and not of you. don't let it bring you down. Kudos on achieving a life accomplishment. sounds awesome.
Just thinking aload for a minute: I often think about what people here achieve DESPITE of their situation. That is impressive and shows character. Digging deeper, I wonder can a certain portion of those achievements be attributed to the crisis?! I imagine YES. Coming through a M crisis, strengthens and builds a person. No doubt about that. It could also cripple someone but thats another debate. Personaly I have a different Outlook on life now than before and honestly believe a much better life is unfolding in front of me. Whereas many parts of my life still sukc at the moment, i have an unwavering belief in that things will be better. Like you I cannot assume W will be part of that but am open to that.
Back to what I wanted to say to you. Time and space are the two key ingrédients to this process. I am glad you seem to fully accept that.
