Hi @Tasia
Your mental reserve will never run dry. Yes it’s soul-destroying, this whole process, but you have it in you to not only survive but also thrive. Continue to do good things for yourself, such as that chicken soup, anything that makes your heart sing. That’s very important right now. The little pleasures, even if they are accompanied by pain. You know you’re going to get through this, you’re holistically strong enough, it will just take a bit of effort. And the crying and raging def helps. Falling apart, screaming, whatever, do it. Then put on some music and sing and dance. Have an out of body experience.

Also, ask for a psychologist if you haven’t already. I’m not sure if I’ve already mentioned this, but I asked for one a few weeks back and she is a godsend. Dealing with my mental and emotional pain is def helping me immensely with the physical.
Sending you lots of healing 🐞🦋🍀🌻
