[QUOTE="witzend, post: 321653, member: 99"] I didn't mean to hurt you, but you are hurt. I called you out on your poo, and it wasn't the poo you were expecting to be called out on. I don't see anything that changes what advice I would give you. You have many stressors, as Susie said, and YOU need to take care of you. Susie's analogy regarding digging tools is spot on. The only thing that I would add is that it seems that since Matt has not picked up the shovel or the backhoe, you have picked them up and gone to work with them. Sadly, you are finding yourself in Matt's hole. It's not where you should be. You should be digging and laying your own foundation of happiness. Still and all, just my opinion. I hope you will get some help with the overwhelming emotions that you are feeling. I know that you are aware that asking for therapy is not a sign of weakness, it is a sign of strength. And for what it's worth, I'm really hurt that you took such offense at my advice, but I'll remember that you are overwhelmed right now and hope that you will reconsider it in the light of day. In the long run, it is as Fran always said, take the advice that helps, and leave the rest. I'm taking a break too. [/QUOTE]
