Breakups & Divorce Support Group
Just broke up with someone or in the midst of a difficult divorce? Breaking up is difficult no matter what the circumstances are. They say that time heals all wounds, but sometimes a listening ear or a hug can work wonders for the heart. Whether you need a place to vent, someone to hold you to No Contact, or need advice about what to do, we're here to help.
Hi friends ... I was sitting here tonight wishing I had a "sponsor" like 12-step programs do; someone to call when I'm tempted to fall off the wagon and call my spouse. My husband is definitely the destructive substance I am trying to rid from my system (I actually think quitting heroin would be easier and less painful). --Besides this great support community, have any of you gone to groups that were comforting or inspiring while you are going through the divorce/break-up valley of ca-ca? IS there a 12-step program for break-ups? :-)

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I went for 3 years during my 27 month long divorce and it was a big help. I made some good friends. I have been skipping some this past summer because I want to move past dwelling on my divorce.
Also i went to an 8 week divorce workshop at a catholic church early in my divorce that helped stabalize me and helped me accept the fact that the divorce was happening.
Also i went to some catholic singles game nights to see how the other half lived though i did not date and have yet to date anyone else.
I did not have the benifit of the computer or internet during divorce. It would have been a good help. This site and divorcesource chat would have been a big help.
I prayed a lot during my divorce and read what i could from the bible. God was my greatest comfort and still is.
I went to al anon for family members of alcoholics also. My ex was a 24/7 drunk.
There is a lot of support out there if you look. I would not depend on just one thing. Getting around others with similar problems is a good thing.
