What to Expect During a Divorce

Going through a divorce can cause a lot of emotional and physical stress. It is something you hope to never have to go through. If you do make the decision to get a divorce from your current spouse, Larsen Law Firm in Provo can help by providing you with an experienced divorce attorney. Our attorneys work hard to make the process of divorce easier on you. Below are some ideas as to what you can expect while going through the divorce process.

Alternating Emotions

Divorce is emotionally taxing. While you and your spouse have decided to get a divorce for the well-being of yourselves and all those involved, the process can still prove to be hard on you mentally and emotionally. It is normal to have a rollercoaster of emotions as you are going through this process. Contact a close friend or family member to talk to about what you are feeling. Know that these feelings won’t last forever and you can overcome what you feel with time.

Judgement

While going through the divorce process you can’t help but to wonder if everyone around you is judging you. While everyone thinks they have the best advice from their “perfect” marriage, reassure yourself you are not like them and only you know what is best for your life and those involved. Don’t worry about the judgement. You will prevail in doing what will make you happy.

Mistakes

Everyone makes mistakes, no one is perfect. You are bound to make a few during the process of getting a divorce. Whether it is saying something you shouldn’t have or thinking you have a change of heart. With all the emotions and stress involved in your life you are apt to make a few mistakes every once and a while. Try not to dwell on these mistakes and move forward with your life.

Children

Your kids are going to need your answers, reassurance, and love through this process. They may be resilient and angry at times because that is their way of trying to figure out the changes and emotions going on in their life as well. Try and explain everything that is going on as honestly and simply as you can. Reassuring your child that you and your ex-spouse still love them is the most important thing you can do during this difficult process.

Divorce is hard and comes with a variety of changes. How you handle the changes that are coming your way will determine how well you can bounce back from a divorce.
