(((Rainbowbrite))) I'm sorry things are hard at the moment. A couple weeks back I had some stuff triggered for me. Hard to shake. It took about a week before it started to receed. But it has now.
I think you should do something nice for yourself. Something to take care of yourself. Its hard when you start thinking about / remembering something all the time. But I guess that means you need to grieve for it. And its okay to do that. To let it out. After you have grieved for it for a bit... I think it is supposed to receed.
Guilt can be horrible.
People do the best they can with what they know at the time. I really believe that. I don't think there is much point feeling guilty for stuff that you can't change. If you have learned some things about how you would like to do something differently next time round then you can feel sad but refocus on the future (I think thats what the function of guilt is supposed to be). Otherwise... Maybe you didn't do anything wrong. maybe you don't need to feel guilty.It is hard when things are hard.
I'm sorry.
