IRL, I am doing a divorce care group and continuing IC. It is helpful in the group situation to discover the commonalities of anger, brain fog, depression (which can be healing) that we all share. Almost out of my depression, I think. There are moments when anger and sadness hit, and there are moments I listen to the above song to wring out a few more tears, because they are healing too. I feel lighter and more centered each week and that is good.
Hi Zelda,
Good for you! I am attending a divorce support group and have been seeing an IC for 7 months, right after my W walked out on me. I have found both to be so helpful.
Yes, grieving, tears, etc are all part of the healing process. Where there is death, there is grief. You are experiencing the death of your relationship, and once the initial shock wears off, you must grieve. I am going thru the same thing as are most of us on this forum.
But you are on the right track!
I don't know if you are a beleiver or not, but I found this bible verse that I pray brings you some comfort:
"While Ezra was praying and confessing, weeping and throwing himself down before the house of God, a large crowd of Israelites—men, women and children—gathered around him. They too wept bitterly” (Ezra 10:1).
