Divorce is never pleasant, and it could be the worst thing to happen so far in your life. The interpersonal issues that led to the divorce will likely continue through the process, but the divorce itself does not need to be a constant strain on your emotional well-being. Keep in mind that your goal is to dissolve your marital relationship so that you can move forward into a better future. By maintaining a standard of emotional health throughout the proceedings, you will have the best possible start on that future.
