I understand what you are saying. I went through a time of this, where I tried this. It did not work for me personally b/c even though I did carry on with my own life, and make sure I was having enjoyment, etc. It was just really too hard to ignore the pressure building up inside me all the time. The walking on eggshells.
I had to leave a lot to be honest. Planned a lot of things out of town and outside the home. Took a lot of walks. Exercise. It was easy to stay busy b/c of having two kids, but eventually it was just too much.
Hugs to you.
