Talk therapy: Many people suffer PTSD-like symptoms following such experiences. You might be. Try to find a therapist you can trust to figure out your needs at this time. I'm not sure what you're not sure of - but that can be clarified in your therapy. How you feel is real and that's the most important part. Sadly, this is not unique - others have been thru similar pain. You can find help!
