Stay busy... You might not feel like doing much of anything right now - but try and force yourself to find things to do. Your friends and family are a great source of support; it helps to simply have someone around as much as possible. Many people have gone through the same ordeal you're going through right now - and not only survived, but found ways to be happy and fulfilled again. It'll be over someday, you just have to brace yourself and weather the storm. Get a new hobby, read a good book, visit a therapist, find a support group in your area, sign up at the gym, take a class, start dating again - anything to keep your mind and body occupied. It'll be over soon enough! Best wishes.

time and patience. Ive been there done that. For one, what worked for me was surrounding yourself with friends and distractions. It doesnt help sitting at home thinking about it, dont do that, it could aid depression, and you dont want that..its not fun at all. Go out with friends, find a hobby, find something to keep yourself occupied. Let yourself lean on your friends for a while...if they are true friends they will let you lean. Set positive goals for yourself. Think of things you can do for yourself to make your life post divorce better. Stay positive, you will get through it. It is ok to let yourself cry sometimes to grieve the marriage, its ok, but pick yourself up from those moments and work your way back up the ladder of life. You will get through this. Think of it as a learning experience, think of how next time you can be all you can be, and prevent problems someday in a future relationship. I dont suggest going out and meeting all kinds of women just yet, it will make you feel worse. Trust me on that. I wish you good luck and i hope some of the advice i gave you will help.

Obviously this is something you don't want yet you have to go thru a grieving process since it is the death of something.
There are support groups, friends, family, etc.
However, one of the best ways to release the pent up stress is a good old fashioned fit!
Scream, cry, kick, beat the heck out of a pillow, do whatever feels good at the time, but do it safely.

Good friends and a good therapist work wonders. Most of all, take the time appreciate yourself and who you "really" are. Sometimes we get so wrapped up in someone else that we forget who we truly are, what we like, what our personal dreams and goals once were. We lose ourselves in love and find ourselves again when we are alone. Don't be afraid to be alone. It is only when you are comfortable being alone that you can truly be a good partner to someone else. The pain really does go away in time. Just let it happen. Let go of what you cannot control. Learn to love yourself and everything else will take care of itself.

I would think the best ways to get through a divorce would be, take time for your self to heal. Take time up with friends and family as much as possible. Just try and think positive thoughts. Good Luck.

It depends on if your Divorce involves children. Them and their needs should be the first priority but as for you, take a renewed and active interest in activities your interested in. Sports, Gym, Hobbies, Academic upgrading and meeting up with friends at the pub or some social activity.
