I know the feeling. It's rough. If that's the only bird you have, I'd get another bird and cage and set it beside your older bird. They will become friends. It's important not to put them in the same cage at all. They will bond and forget you if you do that. If you don't want another bird, then you're gonna have to spend alot of quality time with this one bird or he will die of loneliness, or turn so mean that you won't be able to handle him. Your choice... I know, I've been there.
