[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not very tech-savy and I am not in the DMV area anymore, but it seems like many of us are going through this same very difficult process. Could we form some kind of online support group? Does anyone know how to go about that?

I would love to have other women to talk to and feel supported by those who have already made it through.

[b]The best advice I got from my therapist was to always find ways to stay in the present and to find distractions to all the turmoil going on in my head. She told me that the past would make me sad and the future could make me anxious, but that I could always control the present and find something beautiful or to be grateful for in it. Sometimes it takes tremendous will power, but I have gotten pretty good at it. [/b]

And the hardest part has been listening to my ex’s version of our life. His revisionist views have been brutal at times. So very painful and unfair. Also letting go of what I thought my future would be. I had this plan in my head that went puff and I guess the man I loved was also somekind of concoction I created because this guy I am divorcing is most certainly not the man I thought I had married.

Everyone is right, it does get better and you get stronger and happier. Sending you strength, serenity, love and support.
It will get easier. Be kind to yourself and try to eat and sleep. [/quote]

This is so, so true.[/quote]
