That's a very long time.
It can be. But also don't be hard on yourself if it does take a while. It's okay if it does. It's also not as intense for as long.
Maybe a therapist would be helpful as somebody you can vent to and help you through it.
Thanks, I have an appointment next month. It's tough in the interim.
Glad to hear! Hopefully you find it helpful (if not find someone else).
But you come out the other end a stronger person than you were before.
I think so too.
I've had past experiences with this type of stuff. It gets easier over time, with time being key.
