Take 2-3 statements or other advice that you believe is wise and helpful to you in this transition. Write them down on an index card (not in your phone, not electronic), keep it with you and read it frequently (don't just recall those statements, read them). Remind yourself they are true regardless of how you feel. Emotions are often influenced more than controlled. Take actions as you are able that support or aligned with those truths. Regardless of how you feel. Tell close friends and/or family that you are working to really believe those truths. Then give it time. At least months, maybe years. Time heals many wounds. The process above will hopefully shave off some of that time.
