This was so on point I started crying while reading it. This sentence hit home 'At first your only real emotion is rage.' It feels like rage is just under surface for me at all times. I hurt all the time. It is just a matter of how much. If the pain goes over a certain number, I become a mess. I always think 'oh no! Is this my NEW norm???' Thank you for writing the article. My husband shared it with me.
