I wonder if that may be related to the underlying cause for your crash Kk. Perhaps the bike & kit attention is less of a priority than you are leading yourself to believe.
Anyway, pleased you weren't too badly dinged, and I hope that those aches from the bruises fade soon, but mainly I hope you get everything sorted out & back to being yourself & contented soon mate.
My priorities are clear, and your right, bike and kit are down the order.
Moves are afoot for contentment but there is more than myself to worry about.

Just had an email from the guy I hired the Multi off in NZ. He low sided his 1199 Panigale at the track a few days after I dropped mine, minimal damage, but made me feel a bit better about dropping my 11 yr old hack

I wouldn't. My bike would bring all sorts of dirt and filth into the house.
