Net-positive is good! If congratulations are in order, then congratulations!
In my personal experience, the net-positive thrills are terrific, but too few and far between to merit extensive study. If you can arrange to take a bit of a break for a while until your life settles down, then do that. If not, then you probably don't have time right now to do much more than use a combination of common sense and sheer willpower.
The military and the emergency services have a lot of institutional knowledge of how to function during periods of extremely unpleasant stress. For example: http://www.hooah4health.com/mind/combatstress/default.htm .
Thanks!
Thank you ^.^
