Definitely, positively, undeniably, ABSOLUTELY YES! It makes me so much more comfortable..words can't describe the security I feel by having a good way out! It's like a nice warm blanket that I can put on if I get cold enough(analogy). In my situation, it actually helps me to mentally function better, knowing that I can leave this shit hole any time I feel like it.
I'm glad it helps you to feel comforted too. It's like having a superpower...over your OWN life.... how cool is that? Guess what? We'd all have the 'N' superpower(haha, see what I did there?) if those stupid pro-lifers wouldn't keep it from us!
I wish you the best op.
