Does someone have advice about coping after being electrocuted?

I was zapped with a 300v power line. I don't know what the amps were and I'm not sure of much else. I just am having a hard time with the ';I almost died'; part of things... Is there any advice from people who have experienced similar events?Does someone have advice about coping after being electrocuted?
I had a similar experience and went through a few years of emotional ambiguity about life's purpose and my place and contribution to the overall good.





I finally realized that I had to accept what is and not continually ruminate about that past experience. That experience changed my life forever. But, so have countless other experiences.





Now, I find joy and contentment in the present. Those negative memories have been relegated to the background of my consciousness.Does someone have advice about coping after being electrocuted?
Not to be insolent here but first, you need to get over being shocked.


Electrocution means you are smelly fried pieces-parts on a slab in the morgue.


Really though, death is like being pregnant, either you are or you aren't!


There's no almost and you can't get very close without actually assuming ambient temperature.


I have a relative who contacts upward of 230 volts on a regular basis in his work (he's really lucky, not necessarily smart) and to my knowledge has never thought of actually being anything other than jumpy afterward, it shocks him, he grunts really loudly and goes on about his business. Now, if you come away with most of your skin burned off and both feet blown off, then you can say there was a good chance you cheated death.
If you were electrocuted, according to the dictionary, you died. First step of coping might be to get your terminology correct.
