No I really appreciate it actually. It IS good advice for others who may be in a similar situation. I do try to remove myself from the situation, but sometimes it'll be while we're eating dinner or something.

Actually, this last blow up at Xmas I had already upset my mom a little because she wanted to drive out the ~2 hrs to the airport to grab me instead of me renting a vehicle. But I did put my foot down because knowing that if shit got that bad I'd have an escape plan was the only thing keeping my anxiety at bay.

It really is helpful to know that you can just bounce if it gets to be too much
