Jeez, Maxime--three weeks! Okay, the one day at a time approach, one minute at a time.
DBT distress tolerance helped (helps) me.
A book called Lovingkindness. I know I mentioned it before, but sometimes I would just pray (non-religiously) or affirm simple statements from it and found it very soothing (Different from the Louise Hay book). http://amzn.com/1590305574 Actually, I never made it much past the first set of 'prayers'. I can send you some scans if you like.
Does any benzo help? I found xanax to really give me a lift when I was (or am in crisis). Is that permissible in the short term? You need comfort.
Please babble your friends here and post.
much love,
