STOP PRETENDING YOU’RE FINE AND BUILD A LIFE YOU’LL LOVE
So. You’re going through the Big D (shout-out to all who got my 1990’s era Mark Chesnutt reference). For men, divorce packs a special kind of punch... starting with what is often a life-time of not attending to your emotions. So when one of life’s “biggies” shows up, your go-to response is to button it up and trudge ahead. You may also feel a crushing weight of regrets and resentments from your marriage. And, if you have children, there is inevitably fear that you may lose them. Your identity as a husband, father, provider, family man...all are blowing up before your eyes, and you may feel lost as to who you are now that you are no longer married.
