Yes, it felt good. I slept a little better than any night since the bomb. Then...somehow this morning I crashed even harder on the way to work, as the reality of this keeps sinking in. I'm reading the detachment thread, and it's clear to me that my wife is detached and I'm not even close to detached.
Awoken, this is completely understandable. Your world has been rocked, and you've been thrown off your moral and emotional center. You will have more of these episodes, but if you start to detach properly they will, thankfully, become fewer and further between.
I spent many a night at 2am in the guest bathroom, my head buried deep in a towel, the exhaust fan whirring to cover up my sobs. Just keep the displays away from your wife, where you want to put on your game face.
