โI don't have answers, but I can tell you that you're not crazy for feeling everything at once. The line between helping and enabling is blurry, and you'll cross it sometimes. That doesn't make you a bad person. Find one person who gets it. For me, it was a mate from work who'd been through something similar. And keep something for yourself, even if it's just a run. You'll get through, but not in a straight line.โ

โI was sure I'd never feel noral again. I was wrong. Try not to make big decisions on the worst days. I learned that the hard way. Keep going, even slowly.โ
โI'm not going to tell you everything happens for a reason. It doesn't. But you can get through it. I did, and I'm not especially strong. Try not to make big decisions on the worst days and I learned that the hard way.โ
