just wanted to say something on this: not on the nat mur but on the situation: separation and stress often go hand in hand - it gets to be a vicious circle and the repetitive thoughts can be really tough to handle - what i use for people around me with this problem is the Bach Flowers White Chestnut - i have had some amazing results with this, because it seems to enable us to "get it behind you", and even if you are still thinking about it, you are no longer "mulling it over" and "incapacitated" by it..

worth a try..

don't know if anyone else has any experience with this, but the people i have given it to, and used it myself for one or two things, have all said the same thing, enables you to manage the situation instead of letting the situation manage you....
