says: I too am having a hard time. But I find that if I set my goals in small increments I manage to get through the tough times. Sometimes its as little as get me through the next ten minutes, I can do it. As I work through each day the next one seems to get easier. Dont get me wrong the bombs still drop. But I have learned that nothing is actually as bad as it seems.

You have to hang in there.I went through a very high conflict divorce after being married for 10 years. It about destroyed me. It is hard to stay positive when your watching what you knew as your life fade away. Its hard to stay positive and get through even just one day. What helped me was there were a few things I would tell myself everyday.... it took awhile , but I totally believe them now..
1st was no one is in charge of making you happy but yourself.
you have to create your own happiness which is hard , especially if you were married for any length of time because you have no idea where to start back out on your own. i started simple by talking long walks at the park , then i even started going to the movies by myself and working my way up to "bigger socializing events" from there.

Life is going to throw "crap" at you whether you want it to or not.
Do you have to like it ... of course not.
But you do have to find a way to get through it or you'll start letting your "life" run you instead of you running your life.
after my divorce , I also had little faith in our justice system . a word of advice, if you think you are being wronged by your justice system no matter what state you live in, start searching through their revised statues, if you find something you've been wronged on , print it off and start bring it to your court systems attention. when they see you know your being wrong and your call them out on it or bring it to light , you'll be amazed about how quickly they will stop what they are doing and in alot of cases they will start "righting their wrongs."
I know this not only from first hand knowledge during my divorce , which also gave me the desire to pursue a carreer in Criminal Justice which has also brought alot of joy back into my life that I thought would never be again. Sorry for rambling on but I just felt a strong desire to let you know that your not alone in this world and there are people like me that are here to support you and to let you know that " this too shall pass" but make sure you dont give up on yourself or this program because even though I thought my life was going pretty good when i cam e across this program, well i am 21 days in and the experience of this program it is showing me my life can and will be amazing!!!!
