[quote=Anonymous]OP here -- thanks for all of these thoughtful answers. I was trying to think of a good analogy, and this is my best so far: It's like you moved to a beautiful, expensive piece of oceanfront property and got stung by a box jelly on the first swim. For 18 months you didn't know if your body and brain would ever fully recover. Now you know not to go swimming during certain seasons and tides, and to scan the water around you. But do you still like the view of the sea? Do you still want to go swimming? Does it still make sense to pay all of this money to stay? (Now I know that there are surfers who get their arms ripped off by Great White sharks and are back in the water at the next possible opportunity, etc. I would NOT be that person. Perhaps I do have an anxiety disorder!) The earthquake analogy is close, but...nobody moves to California to live near the San Andreas fault. And earthquakes don't last 18 months, and threaten to never end.[/quote]
