It has been a few days and some of us are struggling hard. I
want to give just a few ideas on how to deal with Class
A, what the heck kind of pain is this?
For this space in time, find a moment to just be. For some of
us, disassociation is not a bad thing. I don't recommend it for a
day-to-day experience but if it gets you to the store and back,
score.
For other, you might have a crying jag or two. It is okay. I
understand.
When you are ready, we will start again and work our way to
better health. In the meantime, don't be ground down.
Don't give your time and attention it to the assholes. Keep it
moving in a positive direction.
Monitor your news flow. I'd suggest you go cold turkey on it,
but that is just me.
Stay with the basics, eat, bathe and find your internal safe
place.
