Mentally worn down

Onenow I just got divorced myself. It was very hard and painful. I didn't think that I would ever get through it. I did get through by the grace of God a lot of praying. I was also going through empty nest syndrome so it made things so much worse. I am going to say it does get better. I promise.
TaraEisenhard Some say the pain is there to teach you something-- something about yourself (what do you really need right now?) or something about the relationship (maybe you gave too much and you're feeling hollow as a result?). If you're willing to dive in and take a closer look, you might temporarily increase the pain, but overall speed the healing process. Regardless of your outlook, it will fade as time puts more space between you and the end of the relationship. One day you'll realize that you made it all the way to lunch without feeling the ache.
Lisa Arends The pain subsides later than you want it to but sooner than you need it to. It won't go away all at once. It will slowly fade and even then, it will occasionally rear back up to punch you in the gut. But, like with anything, you'll get better at dealing with it. More confident that it will one disappear. The way you feel right now is not the way you'll always feel.
