@karukgirl yes actually, I started with someone and shortly after she decided to retire. If anyone reading has done counseling before you know it's a lot to get started (I'm actually a pysch major) and I haven't had the energy to start again. I didn't know if there was anything helpful that others have done or said to themselves that has helped. An epiphany of sorts? When I have trouble going to sleep I recite the Lord's prayer over and over until I fall asleep again 🙂

I wonder if the link posted would be helpful to you? A lot of people do struggle after something so major...so you are not alone! Mayo Connect has tons of information available in many different support groups. Take a look around, maybe one will be your "epiphany!"
Being able to give your cares and anxiety to God is the best way to deal with stress, but it's easier said than done! He truly is in control, we need only trust and believe. Don't give up on finding another therapist. It may take some effort, but connecting with the right one can change everything! Are you able to get out and walk in nature? Do you have a beloved hobby you can do when feeling like you are empty?
