I’m so sorry; the situation with your MIL sounds difficult. I’ve seen you mention it a few times. I have to say the only times I ever called the crisis line was over angst dealing w/my mother’s health problems. It was so hard. I can see how this could cause or at least aggravate a downturn.

I was surprised once to hear my late husband say I was so tough. I never felt that way! It is funny how we appear to others. I guess they don’t see what we’re feeling. Maybe I was acting.

I hope you feel better soon
