But I'm not sure what your post was about. It's hard to respond to any
part of it without feeling like I'm neglecting something else that's
more important.
So all I can say is, wishing you the best.
It's good to see someone other than the incoherent wackjobs posting
today.

My brother and I saw a movie called _The Road_. It's the story of a
widowed man and his 10-year-old son walking through a post-apocalyptic
United States to reach the west coast. It's a good movie but really
depressing because it's so bleak and realistic about survival in a
post-apocalyptic world that leaves some people alive. All the
vegetation is dead, all the animals have starved to death, everything
is wreckage and garbage, people are armed and distrustful and hostile.
There are marauding gangs that have banded together for survival and
people who practise cannibalism. The good part is that it stars Viggo
Mortensen in a role more serious than that of Aragorn. :-) I wouldn't
spend movie theatre money on this movie again because there's really
nothing in it that requires the big screen experience, but if you have
a DVD player you can rent it when it comes out on video. Careful, tho:
It's really a horror story disguised as a drama.
Regarding the other stuff you said in your soon-to-be-deleted post:
I'm really sorry this stuff is happening to you. Hopefully you can
make it on your own.

So, maybe just think of dropping the rope and not playing, or what I
try to do is practice mentally picking it up and playing, or dropping
it, at will, and practice having the power to do that.
Mental kung fu tricks. There are other visualizations, like imagining
getting more and more stuck in a mess of crazy glue, or a chinese
finger trap, remember those? The trick to get out is to relax and not
struggle with the thing.
Easier said than done sometimes of course.
The tug of war thing has helped me especially when it's an issue
involving another person or people and strong negative or positive
feelings about them.
I liked your writing.
And there's more... the ability to take those strong feelings and turn
around and channel them into something useful/productive/creative
etc.
