Ok, are you seeing a therapist? Do you have a group of supportive people you have access to? I see you have found PC but what about other sources?
When someone experiences a trauma, they get overwhelmed and one of the areas that is greatly affected is the emotional part of the brain. It is important to have validation and support for that as if that doesn't take place it can get harder to deal with and even very lonely. That is why you have that feeling of "unworthiness", that is because we all instinctively know that we cannot survive if all we experience is too much emotional disturbance, we need to get help with that and get back to using our problem solving part of the brain again, we have a balance with that and when that balance is challenged we feel "afraid, guilty, unworthy". It is not "wrong" to need emotional support either, often people think it is weak or wrong, but that is just not so, we need our emotionality to survive too.
