Twelve Things to Ask Yourself Daily during a Divorce

Adam’s Wedding Dress has been populated with mostly articles of what is going on in my head. I want to bust out of that because I am aware that my head is not your head. While searching the web and using twitter I am running into some great content, I will share pertinent stories and content with my audience as I research.

Below is a pretty profound list of questions you can ask yourself. I found this list on www.changecoachshelley.comI credit Shelly Stile for a GREAT site. I hope to address each of these divorce support and divorce recovery questions in a post. Whether you are a man or a woman, these divorce questions are important.

Read through these divorce related questions:

Am I still living in what should be versus what is?

Am I able to accept reality, as it truly exists?

Do I believe that this separation/divorce has happened for a reason?

Am I doing whatever needs to be done in terms of managing the stress and taking care of myself?

Do I have a couple of good friends that I can lean on now and talk to daily?

Have I looked into a divorce support group so that I can be with others who truly understand what I am feeling?

Have I identified what truly frightens me right now? Am I able to start facing these fears?

Do I have an attorney that I trust?

If I am feeling great sadness, am I honoring that grief or trying to bury it?

Likewise, if I am really angry, have I found more appropriate ways to release that anger?

Do I feel good about myself? If not, have I thought of all the things that I am versus that I am not? Of all the things that have done versus what I haven’t?

Am I willing to let go o the past and concentrate on the future? Have I started thinking of what I really want in life? Do I have a vision of myself in 5, 10 years from now?
