not too bad of a start, but today will be a real test. It's the first day of going back to work since it all happened. i forsee a LONG day, but hopefully it will be a positive accomplishment. i'm getting my hair "did" tonight, and i hope that will rejuvinate me too. trying to set small goals - 24 hrs NC, 24 hrs no crying, 24 hrs no panic attacks (is anyone else having those?) so that i can feel like i am getting towards getting over it. any idea how long this could take?

Good luck and don't worry we all go through this. You are going about this very smartly taking it one day at a time and setting small goals. Keep up the good work.

thanks iret

just had to pop back home because i forgot my laptop. things went well my first hour back. i was even able to tell a few people about it without crying! i am seeing little beams of light, some sunshine. the hardest part yesterday was that i was losing some Of the resolve i had that things were going to get better. but today is another day, and i know that someday ALL the pain will be gone.
