You can do it!!!
Message me anytime
Seek help in anyway that’s comfortable for you. I have been through some experiences myself and didn’t want to be a burden on anyone around me so I was coping (masking) with the pain alone. It finally took me finding the courage to go to therapy and learning to that’s it’s ok to talk about it and let those around me in so I could get the support I needed.

One day at time. Talk too someone who ur comfortable wit talking to.
I did do it one day at a time but it's been sixty days and no one knows my journey but it been very much a journey. I personally done it alone ... I may tell you about it one day. It's a very interesting story
@amanda407859 YES YOU CAN!!
We've all gone through our share of "traumatic events" in life. From paper cuts to broken nails to death. We all go through them... It's called LIFE. Yes, at times it sucks, however we still have to suit up and show up.
Running to our DOC is not the solution. Only cowards run that direction and hide.
The strong, willing and committed run and dive into recovery. We know that running and gunning is not the answer.
So "How do you start over"? You put the 
down that's phuqing you up and jumping in to recovery. Put your ego/pride aside and scream for help.
You can do this. Add me. I'm hear/here for you. We, the Loosid Community, are here/hear for you.
I think it’s about your perspective. Just by your language” starting over” means you feel something came to an end or you have to totally change because life happened. I don’t know what happened but I think getting through it is a better outlook then having to start over.
