I just kept searching for answers, the good answers. It all looks so much brighter with some sober time, truly. If you can, spend a lot of time reading threads in various sections on this site. That was helpful to me in early days before I could really put two thoughts together.

It does get better, but not at first. There is going to be a lot of discomfort and confusion and irritability but it does slowly loosen its grip.

One day at a time. I did online jigsaw puzzles and that was good for calming me. I listened to Pandora's station called, "Classical for the Soul." I slept as much as I could and I ate pretty much anything I wanted.

Hang on, and don't forget to breathe.
