Staying Healthy While Going Through a Divorce
Going through infidelity,and finding that my husband was lying to me
really kicked me and my self esteem to the curb. I was so sad and
lonely, wanting only to find the answers to many questions that he just
refused to answer. I found myself weeping and crying at many odd hours
of the day, sometimes not even able to keep my crying down to a minimum
tear. During this period of time, I totally neglected my health, not
even thinking about how it could affect my body. During times of
sadness and trouble, we often forget to take care of ourselves.
Although I took meds for high blood pressure, I found myself forgetting
when I took my last dose. This could have become a dangerous situation
for me, but luckily, I survived. We must learn to stop long enough to
remember that our bodies really become weak when we are upset, thus
allowing our antibodies to leave us unprotected and easier to get sick.
Taking care of ourself and our health is so important. Please take
enough time to find ways of relieving stress, while in the grieving
process of infidelity, separation or divorce. After all, you don't want
to become ill and unable to care about the things that you need to take
care of.
