Hey,

Been divorced for a little over 6 months now,, but having some unresolved issues re-emerge that are very draining emotionally....
don't know if this is normal or not...

1. Normal?

if they are unresolved then they were never submerged (?!)
Not to be flippant to your pain but, what I mean is that: if the issue was resolved then by definition how could it 're-emerge'? It was never truly resolved in the first place. Of course, without any specifics it is hard to comment to details. IMO one must get closure. A clean cut heals quicker than a long, jagged tear. As for normal who wants to be that anyway? BORING!!:) 6 months is not so very long. Give yourself time and, be kind to yourself. Anyway, that is how I am seeing it...going on 3 years for me. Good luck to you.

4. I think it was just a phase

I had recently come upon some old photos of the ex and I in happier times,, I let myself slip into a little illusion of self pity and confusion, but feel that has passed....probably, in my case, at least, it was just a necessary step in the healing process....

next step would be...:hide: just wondering if I was the only one?

6. I know

that is the hide sign but, to me it looks like "coming out of the shell" to see if it is ok to get back out there...
and also as I am new this site and I need to get my posts # up so I can vote for the greatest...
anyway I wish you all the best. You seem like you have a handle on it. I have my good days and bad days. The further along I go the farther apart they are...
