Listen, I've been divorced twice. Hang in there, it WILL get better!! There is a light at the end of the tunnel. Talk to friends, therapist even a priest/ preacher. I was devastated after my first divorce. It's not an easy road to travel down but trust me,,, IT WILL GET BETTER.

Seek out a good therapist. If you can't afford one, TALK about it with friend and family. Human contact is the antidote to depression. In bigger places there are often divorce support groups. Join one.

Find a hobby. Join a gym, or a local biking or running club. Keep busy.

Above all: as hard as this may seem to believe, this is really an opportunity for personal growth and to be strong on your own.

It's not going to happen overnight. Be gentle with yourself. Do a little bit each day.

I wish you the best. You will make it. You are still young. Life doesn't begin till 40!

I bet you could go to alcoholics anonymous and just talk about that and not alcohol.

I don't know, but I hope it gets better for you. 😔🤗
One day at a time brotha. I’ve been there and it’s torture.
Call your local hospital and and explain your mental condition. They might want you to come in and you should go. They can put you in touch with someone at no cost or reduced rates.

@Mondayschild ohh ? are they gonna help pay my bills during the time im off work ? are they gonna help me find a place to live ? are they gonna help pay for it ? are they gonna take care of the huge amount of financial distress im in ?
I am so sorry that you are in this situation. I had to go through the death of my mother and divorce at the same time. It's hard but we have to make it. I guess I don't have any advice for you

You gotta pick yourself up and do things to keep yourself busy, sounds like a rough deal for ya.. hang in there and remember there are a ton of people out there in the same boat you are or have been through it.
There are several support groups for men near where I live, group therapy for all kinds of issues, including being newly divorced. There’s the crisis hotline, too.
Maybe you could use some help from a therapist if it's significantly affected you.
