Day 20 here. Peeling the onion right? I'm stealing that metaphor btw...
The past few days have been quiet and emotional, I'm feeling drained.

Laughing at myself because I'm crying at everything, stupid commercials included. Ah well, my daughter will be home later... and then it's all but impossible to be self reflective so I guess I'll just wallow a bit more and then try to do something productive.

I guess this is just part of healing, facing emotions I've drowned out for years.
Glad you're here. I'm on day 19 and I'm told it gets better as we go so keep thinking positively. I had what you are experiencing the first week something awful and only once since. I'm sure it's our body and mind trying to put itself back together properly. (Darn right on the bolded).

I think I got a bit misty eyed on a few commercials myself, but looking back I think it's pretty funny - I'm sure you will to. Take that joy of your daughter and wrap yourself up with it.
