Awww, I'm sorry to hear you're going through this.
I like to feel needed. I like to help people, and I like to see them happy. I hate the thought of letting someone else down. And therein lies my downfall.
Maybe this is too obvious, but can you imagine what you would want for a friend in this situation, what advice you'd give them?
Also, if spending some low-key time watching the ocean would be helpful, you're more than welcome to come stay with us for a couple of days.
The amount of time and dedication that you've willingly put into the business and the convention has never, ever gone unnoticed and unappreciated by me, even when I've been scatterbrained, selfish, and unappreciative. I apologize for that.
I've been (stupidly) quietly dealing with similar feelings in many ways, and my occasional resentment of the store and that unbelievable responsibility that you take up is in large part due to the fact that the 80+ hour weeks leave little room for anything else at all. That hurts me greatly, and I haven't been able to properly express it.
I have been trying very hard to pick up some of those threads and take as much of that responsibility as needed, wherever it is needed.
