How do you get through small talk?

I had my D&C; almost 3 weeks ago and am finally starting to feel like I’m healing a little emotionally. Don’t get me wrong I’m still raw and hurting but it’s starting to sting a little less. I haven’t told many people what we’ve been through over the past few months, and am finding myself really struggling spending time with people that don’t know. Small talk feels meaningless and I can’t handle friends or family complaining about super small things compared to what we’ve been through.

I’ve started avoiding one on one situations with friends who don’t know, but I know I can’t do that forever. Anyone else been there and gotten through this part?
