hp, glad to be here for you :)

I've had some bad drug reactions. Actually, one was my first of only two AP's, seroquel. The only dose (don't know how much; I was green and just home from my only MI hospitalization) and it was an intolerable feeling. I thought it would never pass, but it did. Not the nightmare you describe, but something maybe akin, like the world had been stripped of a protective covering that made it tolerable.

My (further) advice would be to be really gentle to yourself. I've had to forgo certain media input. A media diet :) of sorts. That's one way I cope. Sometimes more strictly adhered to than others. For example, I spared myself watching the twin towers topple over and over. I avoid certain books, even by authors I
might adore. We all have our ways.

I also remember to hug my kid alot. My kid doesn't see me the way I can when I hit the skids, so I try his lenses on when I can remember.

I am sorry you went through that, and am glad you've regained your course.

It's good to reach out. Maybe you could find someone to speak to in person. Maybe posting is enough, too.

Take good care of yourself.
