Getting through it: who helps, what helps, and looking back, sentence 4
Across all those stories, the same things helped: saying the looping thought out loud to someone you trust, putting right what can be put right, small steps back into normal life, writing things down, and grown-ups who know how to help; hiding, pretending and waiting for it to vanish on its own helped least.
Who acts: same things, you, ups, thought · What happens: help, say, trust, put, write down, grow · To what, where: stories, looping thought, someone, things, ups, own · Speech: someone speaks here
