The only things that seem to be helping are xanex, clonapin, and my therapist. I’m trying grounding techniques and havening but they are very hard to put into practice in the moment!

You know, it can be very restorative to give yourself time to heal. I do understand, however, that there can be a feeling of loss, but it is not forever. You will find a new path after your healing. Or maybe a return to your job, if that's what you really want.

Thank you! I’m not sure I have enough work credits to file for disability but I am going to look into it. And for now, I am going to try to find a low stress part time job. My husband has a well paying job so the money isn’t the issue. It’s my desire to feel needed and useful! He also tends to get bitter after a while of me not working because I tend to get depressed and live on the couch which, as he constantly reminds me, is a terrible example to our kids.
