“Time for my Divorce Party?”
“What do I do next?” “Am I supposed to be happy or sad?” “Does this mean I’m supposed to have a divorce party?”
These questions are standard when finalizing a divorce or when you are in the separation phase of your relationship. Even if the divorce or separation was amicable, it can feel overwhelming.
It’s not only the end of a relationship, but also possibly the change of your usual morning routine, finances, time spent with your kids, or even where you live. Your everyday life can now feel chaotic, and you can begin to question your abilities to overcome all the changes and emotions.
Divorce and/or separation can feel so lonely and isolating at times. If only people knew what you are dealing with behind closed doors.
“How do I begin rebuilding my Life?”
Starting anything over in life can be difficult.
Feeling overwhelmed and stressed are common emotions that individuals must cope with when coming to terms with the fact that they are ending a chapter in their lives they never imagined would happen.
If you have never prepared for a moment like this, where do you begin picking up the pieces of your life?
An even more challenging question is, if necessary, how do you start to rebuild a different type of relationship with your ex that is healthy for both you and them?
Clarity and support are closer than you think.
Unsurprisingly, you might feel somewhat foggy in this new chapter of your life. You might even feel like you are in a whirlwind of emotional highs and lows.
The good news is the way you feel is entirely normal. It is time to find clarity not just in your upcoming decisions but also clarity in your needs and wants. It is also relatively easy to be hard on yourself or pressure yourself to get over this stage in your life quickly.
