Hope4MeYet Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Hi. This week I put in my petition for divorce from my best friend. My situation is unusual as my husband and I are going through an amicable divorce, however as we get closer to the reality of it (like me filing for it) it's becoming all the more painful. I feel like I am swimming in a sea of sadness all the time. I'm depressed, I've lost weight, I can't focus on work. We have two boys ages 8 & 5 and so I try to be strong for them, but at least once a night I go into a bit of a crying spell. My husband and I still live together due to the agreements we have. I never know if that is worse, or better. Worse in the sense that he and I are a constant reminder to each other that this is happening. We haven't given ourselves the space we need to heal FROM each other. I do have outlets. I'm a writer, I dance ballet and I am a drummer. But with the recent sadness I can't even get myself to do that stuff right now. Hope4MeYet
