    We’re in the bad place, the only way to not go insane or cry constantly in heartache is extensive use of compartmentalization. That is, you have to selectively and temporarily ignore certain things at times so that you can continue to function. Then later, make time to consider those things you had to set aside.

      Yeah that last step is crucial, otherwise you’ll find yourself dwelling on those thoughts on loop anytime you’re not busy.
