the local DivorceCare group I'm in, showed a video about divorce.
The analogy was like a tornado had come in and wiped out our houses. A few items were recoverable but basically we have to rebuild from foundation up.
It just looks like so much devastation. So we hunt down some tools and we get an architect (- a good therapist -a helpful doctor-a guiding minister or all 3)
and we re-build.
Maybe the new house will be stronger or better designed so that even a tornado won't wipe it out.
Or maybe we will keep the tools nearby in case the house needs repairs along the way, like all homes do.
LC, see about the DivorceCare group in your area. It's a national group so every area has one. And hey, we don't sit around moping. We do talk about our pain (no glossing over) and we help each other out and we socialize and we all "get it".
It's practically free.
A stunning looking 32 y/o woman came last week and she literally could barely speak.
Turns out she has 2 little kids, and her h is moving out on Saturday, he's just taking his clothes.
She's taking the kids to a birthday party while he moves out. So when they return to the home I guess she gets to tell the kids daddy is gone & not coming back. (Yeah, I know, what a coward).
Point is, LC, she is very depressed. Said it was the first time she "could share" anything b/c it's too painful. But knowing we get it, helped.
Check it out. Can't hurt.
