Shock: When people are physically in shock we cover them with a warm
blanket.

Take care of yourself:
- Take "time out" just for you even if it?s only 10 minutes a day.
- Eat regular meals that include fruit and vegies.
- Read a book, listen to some music.
- Get some good sleep.
- Cry as long and as often as you need: it?s a natural reaction.
- Talk about your feelings.

Ask for help. Find someone who will listen. (See Useful Contacts at the end of this book). Take any assistance that is offered.
