Well it's done. I am offically divorced. I feel like crap!!!!!!
Not at all like I thought I'd feel. I should be happy that I'm out from sadam's boot, but oh no, I have to feel guilt and shame. Help, how long do these feelings of dispare and guilt last? Posted on 10/09/07, 08:10 am |

Society seems to make us feel that we are failures for being divorced. I was fine with my divorce as everything was processing but the day it was final I felt very depressed and guilty. You have no reason to feel bad! Divorce does not make you a bad person and you will be happier once you have established your own life. Stay strong! You have a full and wonderful life ahead of you.

I'm not at the finalizing stage yet, so I have no idea how to address what you're going through. However, I have my trusty quote book in front of me this morning (helps to motivate me some days).
"We learn wisdom from failure much more than success. We often discover what we WILL do, by finding out what we will NOT do." --Samuel Smiles "If you have made mistakes...there is always another chance for you. You may have a fresh start at any moment you chose, for this thing we call 'failure' is not the falling down, but the staying down." --Mary Pickford Don't be so hard on yourself! Give yourself some time to heal and adjust. Let go of the guilt and shame. The divorce is now in the past. There is nothing that can be changed in the past. Now is the time to focus on you and what will make YOU happy! BIG HUG!

These waves of dispare are agonizing!!!! He has only been gone 2wks and he is telling everyone we are already divorced …
Sadness and Depression thoughts of loss/rejection of a loved one or the failure to achieve an important …
Kinda sucks. whatever you do you'll never become un-divorced. Feel like I walk around with a sign of failure.
