Hello Malawicca: I noticed this is your first post here on PC. So I wanted to say... welcome to PsychCentral… from the Skeezyks! I hope you find the time you spend here to be of benefit.

You received some solid advice from Tishabuv. The only thing I would add is that if possible you may want to consider seeing someone (presumably a therapist of some sort with whom you can talk this through) should you find you continue to not be able to let this go. You haven't done anything wrong. This was simply an unplanned & unexpected occurrence & you handled it well.

The danger here, to the extent there is any, is in continuing to allow this experience to rumble around through your thoughts. In some way or other, you need to find a way to put it to rest. Writing about it, as here on PC, is one way to do that. But if that is not sufficient, then try to find someone with whom you can process what you're experiencing. It's not what occurred here that is problematic (in my opinion.) It's how you are feeling about it... if that makes sense.

PsychCentral is a great place to get information as well as support for mental health issues. There are many knowledgeable & caring members here. The more you post, & reply to other members’ posts, the more a part of the community you will become. Plus there are social groups you can join & chat rooms where you’ll be able to connect with other PC members in real time (once your first 5 posts have been reviewed & approved.) Lots of great stuff! So please keep posting!
