We strongly suggest that you ignore those who inform you that getting married and starting a family will help you “get over it.” Experience has taught us that it will often complicate things rather than heal them.

In closing, we offer you our sincere and heartfelt b’racha that Hashem grant you menuchas hanefesh and simchas hachayim (tranquility and joy) in your lives.
