Emotionally, you can surround yourself with great friends and family. They can be your support network. Physically, focus on healing. Try meditating. Not only will it take your mind off your physical pain, it can also help you with your emotional pain.

Learn basic first aid to treat your injuries and keep a supply of clean dressings etc if you can. When they have started to heal encourage that healing and forgive yourself by applying creams and massaging any scars, you deserve to heal just as you deserve to feel better.

Any injury should be cleaned with warm water with a clean cloth/ flannel. After, an antiseptic should be applied, followed by a plaster. The plasters should be changed every day, and changes should include washing and then putting on the antiseptic again. Bigger injuries may need medical attention.
