Having an Exceptionally Difficult Day / Re: The C* holiday word

Marta, I sense the desperation in your words and wish I could help in some tangible way. With the hurt still haunting you, it may be hard to realize that those horrible times aren't part of part of your present story. Though the memory still hurts, by writing about it you're beginning to build on a new life, starting with self-care.
Anger is often frowned upon by people who didn't have to handle what many of us endured, through no fault of ours. There are times when to express it, and grieve its senselessness, is a noble form of self-care and character.
You're in charge of your life story now, and writing about these is showing that there are welcoming signs of courage emerging from the grief. The courage doesn't stand out for you, perhaps; but I can see it, and admire you for doing so.
Unfortunately, words don't matter half as much as just knowing we support you in any way possible. And I hope that can start just with this deserved and heartfelt way:
Please continue to take care of your precious being.
