The only significant difference between what you write there and what I went through, is that I was still at the point where I thought that it might be possible to keep living as I was.Originally Posted by Bree_K
Like working on a bad job, "Well, I think I can stand another month of it", or "I really hate going in today, but the rent is due", or "let's see how badly they #$@# me over at xmas time, maybe it will get better.".
How much longer did I have before it I couldn't stand it anymore? I don't know. Another couple of years of struggle seemed like something I could perhaps get through, but I didn't think I could make it until retirement.
And once you have figured out that you must do something to fix your life, if you do not need to delay for Darn Good Reasons, then struggling in misery for a few more years just because you are not yet at your breaking point, does not seem to be a wise strategy. Wiser, IMHO, to take action before it becomes critical.
