How do you get over divorce?

[Anonymous]

Was married for 4 years, together for 9 years. We have a 1 year old and my husband is divorcing me. He just claims he’s not happy with me and he wants other things. I constantly cry and feel so much anxiety. I gave everything up for this man and I feel so alone and heartbroken. My son is the only thing that still gets me going. But I have anxiety all day. The thought of him with someone else breaks my heart. I’m 28 and I feel like I have nothing now.

Took me a year to get over my separation. When the dissolution was finally filed, I was more or less ok.

I have a new life now and am doing ok.

It’s a difficult phase and hard to pass on. But please get over it. Take therapy if you want. Get a hobby.
