Pack, I am with Drh, I think you are doing all the right things. I have no advice for you or thoughts about how to work through the feelings you are having. I think those are normal, and just have to be worked through. Only suggestion I have is that when those moods strike, get up and get busy doing something productive. GAL is a new lifelong thing, just keep as busy as you can.
