The thoughts of Adm. James Bond Stockdale, reflecting on his 7+ years checked-in at the Hanoi Hilton seem appropriate in this situation:

You must confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.

You must confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.

Words to LIVE by!
