The key is to get support to work through what happened to you. When you reach out to medical doctors and mental health professionals, they can provide you with the tools and means to alleviate the normal reaction to stress you’ve encountered. Speaking with your friends and family will also give you a sense of comfort. You won’t have to see a mental health professional for a long time, but it is a good source to lean on until you get past your stress. If you are religious, you can always turn to your religious leaders for guidance.
