How to deal post break-in

My partner and I have been moving it’s taking a while because I have a small car and it is half way across the state. Because of this we have been leaving our apartment unattended periodically. Yesterday we came back and the apartment was absolutely ransacked. It felt violent, every drawer dumped, trash everywhere, pee all over the bathroom, etc. There were only a few large things stolen but my partner’s computer was one of them and he is devastated. Years worth of projects, games, files, all of it gone.

I feel sad for him but more than anything I just feel so incredibly violated. They even went through our stored birthday cards. For me It’s less about the fact that they took things and more about how much they destroyed.

I am so thankful that we and our pets are safe and we had already moved most important things.

I was just wondering if anyone has advice on how to recover from the emotional side of things? We are trying to get into therapy asap but I feel stained in some way.

Any kind words are appreciated!
