GAL definatly helps. In fact this past weekend I took a trip and met up with all new friends. (Something I never would have done in past) the fact that I am reaching out and making new friends is a nice 180 for me. I am very greatful for this.
It's when I'm alone with my thoughts that times get difficult. your right though, I do better when I'm busy. Work is a vacation for me because I have no time and my focus is on others.
Was wondering if you don't mind answering a question. Do you think mediation is a "safe" way to go.? I know it is the more amicable. We do not have many assets and our finances have always been separate. Im already getting child support.
I was strongly advised by attorney (and by family members who have no background in any type of law other then judge Judy) that I should litigate. Was told that husband would take advantage of me and that I am not the best at negotiating for myself (very true) the attorney could have just said this because it would be an easy case for him although I am sure he certainky does not need my business.
Any others advise would be appreciated as well. I am going to consult with mediator and if we went that route I would obviously hire a lawyer as well. Just wanted to hear non biased opinions.
