This is what he does to me, pushes me toward my tendency to feel hopeless.
(((((Rose))))) I can so relate to that horrible feeling. Not to mention the emotional hangover
Try not to let it bring you down too far, Rose. You're doing so good, holding everything together. You're a very strong lady - don't forget that! The pain of others doesn't invalidate what you're feeling - you still have to live in Rose's world. Take it easy on yourself, especially today when you're not feeling your best.
Love and hugs.
