How did you get over your divorce/break up?

I instigated the divorce but I am still desperately sad that it has come to this. He hasn't moved out yet but he is moving out this weekend. We will share our primary aged children's time.

I work full time and have lots of lovely friends, many of them don't live locally anymore which is a shame and can mean that when I unexpectedly feel my lowest I don't have anyone locally I can just drop in and see. My local friends are the kind I can see for scheduled meet ups.

So what helped you? I already have weight to loss/fitness to improve which I know will help me physically and mentally but other real life tips would be great.

It really is a form of grief
I don't feel much about the end of my marriage which I think says a lot but the end of the relationship before this one almost killed me

I got stuck in to my old hobbie. I didn't let myself think about him, or what we were or anything. I've felt sad and teary and stuff, ofcourse, but I've been strong. Also, if you don't have any hobbies Centre of Excellence have some online courses. I did 3 upto now! Haha good luck
