I'm just back from taking a week off...maybe close to two. It did me some good to worry about the crap in my own life rather than the crap in someone else's!
Everyone is right. Try to take a break. Just want you to know though, this case has made me insane too. I can't get away from the computer. When I do have to go out for errands, etc., I rush through everything so I can get back really quick. My house has never been this much of a wreck, my family hasn't had a really decent meal in weeks, and my friends are wondering why I've dropped off the face! Not kidding about any of this. Also think I've gained 10 lbs from sitting on my arse so much and have smoked WAY more than normal. So believe me I feel where you're coming from!I don't know about you guys - but I go to sleep thinking about this child and I wake up thinking about her. I can't do this anymore. I am 39 yrs old. I have 3 children ages 6, 11 & 12. I hug them so tight now they think I am crazy. I just talked to my parents and they are just like "oh that family is crazy". bla bla bla but I listened to Cindy and all the tapes and I have hi-lited all of the text messaging. I can't do this anymore. This case is really freaking me out. This needs to go to Ranting but I couldn't find it.

Find comfort in knowing your heart is in the right place. Feel blessed for what you have. Tend to yourself...we need you here!

Stuff those papers in a drawer. I understand your frustration. What I wouldn't give to be able to walk up to Casey and punch her in the face (and i'm not a violent person). I've had to step away from the computer lots lately, especially with all this new stuff coming out. Watched some movies with my son, hung out with the dog, went to visit my mom.
You're lucky - the other night I caught myslef walking the daughter and watching the movie with the dog.

Take a deep breath - it's going to be OK.
We have all been "consumed" by this case to varying degrees.
Is this your first "true crime" case?
I've had fairly intense interest in a couple - but I do think this one is more convoluted than most - and there is so much info out there, now especially.
After this is over - you may find yourself backing away from "true crime" cases for a while. I think overload sets in - and a sort of recuperation period is needed - at least that's how it is for me.
