We all have highs, and lows, and periods of difficulty, sadness, grief or anxiety, but this was something totally different. “But then at night total night terrors of seeing very visibly somebody causing harm to me or to the baby. And then just being wracked by guilt, anxiety, intense sadness, and feeling extraordinarily vulnerable and like I’d caused other people huge difficulty; that I’d wrecked their lives.”
