First, psychological distress such as feelings of guilt, self-blame, shame, helplessness, anger, anxiety, feeling like a failure as a parent, confusion, shock, distrust, hopelessness, and sadness. Second, the creation of relationship tensions with others such as distrust of others. Third, financial problems such as debt and loan defaults.
