Dinah,

i see what you're saying...that's the Marge Simpson approach--"have a bowl of strawberry ice cream and everything will be all right."

what i really meant--but didn't explain well--is the belief in Good Conduct. being virtuous, i suppose. if there's something wrong with your marrigae, i don't think you should act "as if" everything is okay--i just mean, keep your side of the street clean. keep your behavior kosher.
your marriage could be a disaster, it would be terribly phony to act as if everything were okay--but i think the law of Good Conduct simply means not resorting to anything down 'n' dirty.

you are not being discouraging, we're just sharing our views and trying to figure all of this out. i know what you mean about being alone and taking hot baths...i'm pretty much in the same boat. depressed. i've just noticed that dooing "bad" things exacerbates the depression...i went into my volunteer work smelling like a brewery and they gossiped about me, i'm cheating on my boyf...these things make me feel worse.

arrrgghhh...i'm getting way too repetitive, i just don't think anyone should be an "as if" person.
