@arbitrarykitten I am SO sorry to hear about your accident. I had absolutely NO idea.... @giantbear informed me a little earlier. It really is miraculous that you walked out of that alive.
I can absolutely relate to the "keep on, keeping on" attitude and approach to your livelihood, but at the same time, after an experience like that, you also need to realise that you mind, body and heart... need a little bit of reprieve. Don't force it because that wont help you long term.
If anything, take a little time out and think about writing ideas rather.... give yourself some time to process things. Yes, I do agree that writing assists in the healing process, I know it has for me - but so SOON after such a trauma it may be more advisable to just take a little time to breathe!
Sending you lots of love and support from myself and all the members of the @steemitbloggers community.... and if you ever just want to chat, vent or express.... then pop in (if you have access to discord.)
Take care hon.... one day at a time
