For what it´s worth from a stranger, it appears that you have done quite a lot to help yourself- just getting a lawyer is a big step, accepting that his consequences financially are not your problem is a bigger step, having a therapist that you trust is huge, crying out the pain and then seeing the need to cry that much lessen- it´s all a sign of you making progress on YOUR healing journey. Don´t forget to look back now and again and give yourself credit for how far you´ve come since being blindsided.
