โReading this late at night? I've been there. Two years ago, that was me. I remember learning German from scratch like it was yesterday. I wake up most days without that dread. It's slow, but it does come back. Be gentle with yourself.โ
โIf you've just found this place, a year and a half ago I was exactly where you are. Back then it was my husband still there. I'm volunteering here now. You get yourself back in pieces. From someone who gets it.โ
โFor anyone new to this: I was right where you are about three years ago. A job far below my training. That was my life. Now I sleep most nights. It changes. It really does.โ
โA note for the next person. Eighteen months ago I was exactly where you are. Back then it was a job far below my training. Last month I had people round for dinner. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. From someone who gets it.โ
