LH, comparing different traumas is difficult. My XW's untreated postpartum depression resulted in my son being in a full-body cast. The anger initially served me well--to get more space, get custody, and help my children. But after, and especially when she got better, it was a festering wound. Lingering anger is a tie that binds us, but it doesn't serve us. In-person, I have many single parent acquaintances. Some work to reduce it, some don't. Graduations and holidays are easier for the kids of parents who do.

I live in interesting times. Amazing highs, tough lows--both karma. Onward and upward. (:
