Rather than moan and whine, I will be very brief.

Coming from a bad mental health spot, I have a small bit of wisdom, and that is this.

    Your problems will never go away. You will never not have some sort of problem that needs addressing. The best you can hope for, the best you can work towards, is to have interesting, non life-threatening, sometimes fun problems.

I have gone from life-threatening problems, to interesting, and not life-threatening problems. The problems that I do have are wallet problems, not will to live problems, and I am working on being grateful for that.

Started to really dig into the Mass in Time of War to be fully prepared for NYC come June, which is only 2 months away. We have one rehearsal between now and the flight. Four rehearsals with the full choir in NYC. One dress rehearsal with the orchestra and soloists. It helps to keep that in mind as I sit and audiate and study my score.
