Brooklyn that is such good advice to IB - one step at a time. I am 8 months post bomb drop and still have days when I need to remind myself to get through this day.
keep doing what you are doing IB - you are strong and insightful and this will put you in good stead as you travel this bumby road.
It will get easier with time but in the meantime just breathe in and out, one breath at a time.
One thing which helped me when I had long weekends ahead and my mind was racing at a million miles an hour was a time line of my marriage - in particular the last 4 years as I think my husband's MLC has been really gathering strength since then. Seeing everything plotted out in multi colour showed me such a lot and helped me find peace in my brain as the thoughst were out on the page and would be there forever. I still add to it as something pertinent arises and it shows me my husband's journey is not yet done and he is in turmoil. I feel compassion towards him. lalxx
