"For someone who will be 42 this year (I'm looking down at you from a vantage point somewhere beyond that, BTW) you strike me more as someone who has a year or so of experience repeated 42 times."
I presume you are asking a question since obviously it would be foolish to make such an assumption about a total stranger. The answer is, "No, I am not someone who has had a year or so of experience repeated 42 times." I'll put my life-experience up against your anyday. Not that it's a contest or anything.
"All you can do is keep watching closely for the line and hoping it's not a cliff."
A false hope, since you've chosen of your own free will to *define* that line as a cliff.
I'm sorry that you're having such a tough time of it. But situations like this is what professional help is for. Please talk to someone or check yourself in to the appropriate hospital. There's no shame in admitting you need help.
