It certainly is not unusual if you are currently experiencing shock, horror, disbelief, anger, grief, numbness or other range of emotions. It’s possible it could be affecting your sleep, causing you nightmares or insomnia, consuming your thoughts, causing anxiety, or an inability to concentrate. Or perhaps overwhelming grief and sorrow. While it may be next to impossible to comprehend now, over time resilience can build and we can recover our lives and push through our suffering and live to honor those who have fallen as well as strengthen the relationships that remain, as well as build new friendships.
