I am so sorry @Blueberrybook - I am sorry this is all happening which seems like all at the same time. It's so hard when it's like that. Take one thing at a time. The world may be speeding up, but you don't have to. Slow down, be gentle with yourself. You said your SAD lamp helps you - why don't you just relax with it for a bit? Not too much stress, like trying to paint or anything, but just to breathe and count backwards from 10 to 1 a few times. I know about wanting everything to be perfect, especially on your wedding anniversary and your daughter and your H aren't exactly helpful right now - but it's important that you ground yourself as best as you can. Have you thought about a nice long shower today? That always helps me. We are here for you, keep posting and checking in, we love you. 
@MuddyBoots - damn hon, I am so sorry that the CM was no help today - I am thinking of you, and hope that you at least make it back to your apartment today. 
I am in better spirits. Went to an AA meeting today, which all of you had reminded me to do, which I FINALLY did today. It was so good seeing everyone and participating in the meeting. Did some grocery shopping today - I have way more Diet Dr. Pepper than I need but I think it will last the next two months, lol. It FINALLY cooled down here too - its barely 80 degrees so I have all the windows open with the fans on. I think I am going to burn some incense and some candles tonight.
