How to remain on an even keel and not to drop too low into the black hole of despair? You want to lick your wounds for a while, but you don't want to isolate yourself. You want to vent your anger but you want to talk to somebody. Someone you trust. A teacher, a priest, a minister, your doctor. Whatever. Hey, you take a pill for a headache. This is a major one.
