has kept me going. Unsolicited advice: Do some organization of/writing about what is going on, and name your priorities, if you are able. Don't sweat it if you don't, because a good therapist will help you to do this right away. It's a powerful time for therapists, learning how to keep us functioning in the most surreal of worlds. All bless these good folks.
