you've accomplished a whole LOT, and did so against the odds! I believe I'm around your age and you've accomplished a lot more than I have.
I too have to confront my many failures every day, and I know it's not easy! That said, I can only repeat what my shrink tells me, and that's to go easy on yourself..It may sound lame, but the truth is, life is hard -- harder I think, than most of us realized when we were young. Please take care of yourself.
