Sometimes you have to do what's best for you. It's not always easy, and sometimes it's not what's best for other people. But sometimes you must prioritize your own mental health. It's not your responsibility to be there for everyone at the expense of yourself.

Also, I recommend seeing therapy after traumatic events like these. My wife had PTSD from a traumatic health event, and it was fucking awful.
