We all deal with things differently. In my sitch, my WAW has completely partitioned off her emotions and is focusing solely on work. I'm a wreck but am getting better. I just think about things all the time and my mind spins, I'm getting nothing done - and that's going on 6 months. So don't beat yourself up because you're an emotional person but try to figure out what you need to move on.
I don't know personally, but I've known a LOT of people who've taken meds and they say they help.
And yes, you've got to get past it, for your own sanity.
