On the other hand, the issues above are more or less well established. My concern is that the list grows longer with time. It's hard to avoid the conclusion I'm gradually losing any grip I ever hand on my ability to cope so, while your advice may be spot on, the worse things get, the stronger the impulse to just pack it in and give up trying to have a normal life.
Thank you for the reply though I must admit it strikes me that you may be taking some things for granted.

What am I taking for granted? I was just offering advice. I mean, I only spent a week in the hospital and 6 weeks in an out patient program recently, where they drill coping skills in your head, until that's all you think about. If you would like to talk about coping skills, let me know. I have a whole notebook on them.
Don't give up.
