It stinks that you're dealing with this. You're a smart woman, and I trust that you'll figure out what works best for you. If you can't figure it out, don't worry. Multitudes of mere acquaintances are going to start offering you their sure-fire miracle cures. Carry a notebook with you wherever you go.

That is more healing than anything, I suspect, and probably the most wise.
