So many people on this board seem to know just the right things to say, I could never hope to be so eloquent. I would just like to say that I truly feel for you and wish you to find happiness in your life. "In the end, I don't want to be happy" sounds to me like "survivor's guilt" which I fully understand. I pray you find the strength to go forward.
