Tonya it reads to me as if you have made HUGE strides toward dealing with this, and writing here about it is another step toward keeping your grip. We've long held the same philosophy about journaling and here's another solid example.
On a totally separate but sort of related note, do you use Twitter ever at all? I have an account and am a huge lurker when I have time (stuck waiting in line at the grocery, etc.) but I rarely tweet. I do read the tweets, however, of an eclectic group of people, many of whom include a few celebrity types (neil gaiman, amanda palmer, grace potter, poppy z. brite, joe hill). All of those people manage their own twitter accounts and tweet from them just the way the rest of my friends do and I really like peeking in on them. I think you would enjoy Joe Hill's feed a lot.
That said, I only peek in there maybe twice a week and I simply grab what I grab during my window of opportunity, so I miss a lot. I just don't have time to do LJ, FB, Twitter, everything else I want to do on the web, etc., but since I mostly lurk anyway it's not like anyone misses me.
