How To Handle Divorce: Be Compassionate With Yourself

We find that there are typically two types of responses men have when dealing with a divorce. Some men tend to externalize all of the conflict, blaming their ex-wives for everything that has gone wrong in their lives. Others tend to internalize the conflict, blaming and beating themselves up over everything that happened. If you find yourself in the second camp, this message is for you.

Now, possibly more than any other time in your life, it's incredibly important to be kind to yourself. Little will be gained by obsessing over the mistakes that might have been made or what you could have done differently. Learning to forgive yourself and realizing that your past decisions don't have to burden your future ones will be an important step in moving on.
