the best advice I can give you is just get away, even if it’s only for a few weeks. It just gives you head space David and you need that right now. You can retreat to lick your wounds. Try not to think too long term. Thoughts can overwhelm you.. particularly ruminating on the past. So just take a deep breath, say ‘let it go’ and take each day at a time.

It hurts… but you don’t have to act on it. Just accept it, and deal with it, hour by hour.. and tell yourself it’s just a day at a time.

You will get there. Just be assured you will get there.

Here if you need help or you struggle.
