Inadvertent IMC really focuses the mind, it takes alot of experience to overcome. It usually comes with disorientation and a loss of situational awareness. Low, slow and decending out of it smells of disaster, once it's happened IMO the only thing to do is climb to MEA and sort your $41t out.
Disclaimer: I'm talking about inadvertant IMC not this case in particular as I do not know the cause of events.
