So I was in a car accident

|| Trello| TOS |Business HRS/Schedule || It was pretty terrifying to be perfectly honest. We were going home after a furmeet that happens every Thursday, we had the green arrow to turn into the highway, and out of nowhere a white car hit us and drove us into a pole. They hit the passenger side, which I was on that side. We weren't going very fast and neither was the other car, but it was enough to feel like I was punched in the shoulder pretty good. After the impact, my phone literally dies and everyone asks if I was ok in the car. For a few moments I thought I had enough control over myself to keep myself collected after this happened (putting my PTSD to the ultimate test), and then after a couple minutes of silence, it all just washed over me and I started to panic. I never panicked this hard, and I just continued to panic until the paramedics got me out of the car. My entire world was rocked really hard last night, and I felt extremely small in it. It's only been a night since it happened, and I'm still extremely terrified. I'm extremely grateful that everybody in both parties were both ok. But the emotional scarring that were ripped back open last night just made me realize just how easy it is for your life to be snuffed out or even changed forever. I'm doing 'ok' for now, and keeping an eye on my entire right arm today (thankfully I draw with my left lol), but I think I need a couple days to celebrate some happiness and joy. I need a little more emotional help from friends and family to remind me I'm still alive and that I'm perfectly fine, and I just need some ice cream and good movies to watch while I recover from this. This was an extremely unexpected delay, and I'm truly sorry, I'll continue to try to work a little bit at a time since I have some deadlines to fulfill. Just remember I'm extremely emotionally unstable and sensitive.
Please hug your friends and family super tight the next time you see them, tell them how much you care and how much you love them to pieces or however you want to tell them. Please drive safe, and be careful out there everybody. I love all of you.

Had to deal with this the hard way cause I was the only one awake in the car -.-
Hope you feel better psychologically as well, definitely not an expert in PTSD or anything, but I hope ya feel better.
I actually went to the hospital a day later and I have a minor cervical strain (it's the space between the shoulder and the neck) on my right side and am currently having some amazing medication to help me heal up (insert sarcasm). I'm doing a lot better emotionally right now, but I'm still very nervous being in a car still (like I'm still shaking uncontrollably and I'm very much on high alert, it's gotten very hard for me to relax). So yeah...
We'll see how things go within a few days :)
so:
~hugs~
