Any other advice?
Yes. Yes it is totally normal. What you are doing is SOOOOOOOO hard, but SO worth it. You’re just in the very worst part of it right now. I promise you it gets better. I swear. You just need to tough it out to get to the easy part. You can do this. You really can. I know this is cliche sounding, but if I can do it, anyone can. Congratulations on making this terrific, brave decision. You will not regret it.
