Your comments take me back in a very visceral way to how I felt not so long ago. I meant even the words you use are the same ones I used. The easiest thing would have been to succumb, and I wanted to, just to find relief. But if I had done that I would have missed out on some of the most amazing moments of my life, truly too many to name, and I never would have experienced my miracle metamorphosis into a happy-by-default person, which was an impossible outcome, and more shockingly, the healing that resulted in my becoming one of the most emotionally resilient people I know, I was such a fragile wreck. Getting through those times made me a very strong, very happy person.
It's a such a grim moment and you're stuck in it, but if you can just hold on...
You will be grateful later.
