After two years of this nonsense…..I am seriously considering a move for 6-12 months to Portugal! I used to live in Europe so it feels like home. I need a break, quiet alone time and I’m seriously ready to just go! Anyone else done anything like this?

I went to Bali for a month :-) I could only leave for a month but I found a change in latitude helped change my attitude. My problems did not go away but I spent the time doing LOTS of yoga, meditating, reading, exploring, swimming, and seeking spiritual experiences. It reminded me of the opportunities and living I still had ahead of me. It was nice not to see all those triggers every day. But there were moments of profound loneliness and I worked through those, which was helpful.
It was healing, but I also worked hard while there to heal.
