The thing to remember is that your brain is working hard to make sense of something that can’t ever make sense. All those mental circuits that used to fire so clearly are trying their best to relate to this entirely changed world. Your mind is doing the best it can to keep a bead on reality when reality is crazy. Be patient with yourself. Remember that this is a normal response to a stressful situation; it’s not a flaw in you. You’re not crazy. You’re grieving. Those are very different things.
