Hi, I am so sorry that you are unwell. I do believe there is a direct relationship between getting sick and stress. And yes, I also felt at my worst emotionally when I was sick. Think of the 'child' that needs comforting and you as the adult are not up to doing it right now.
It does get better, it really really does. But it is a long slow process with both progress and set backs. You are dealing with many many emotions and circumstances right now. Please be nice to yourself, and go back to reading the book 'Journey from Abandonment to Healing'. Very soon you will be thinking about future plans, and doing good stuff. This is the worst bit for many [apart from just post bomb, when the shock protects us from feeling as much]. We are alone, in a situation we didn't want to be in, didn't choose, didn't sign up for.
If I lived near I would bring you chicken soup. Oh, and don't stress about the therapist, consider what Antonia the adult does? It feels like another set back. Maybe it is the right time to take a break.
