I guess we all handle it in different ways. I did my best to make an intolerable situation better until I finally (!) realized it wasn't going to get better and I was either going to get really sick or truly go nuts.

That's when I decided to get out of that situation... easier said than done sometimes, I know.

I suppose a person could try to re-direct your attention and energies in order to try to keep your mind in a better place but it seems you are already trying to do that.

Guess I will just wish you good luck, may you make the best possible decisions in dealing with it all.
