Effects of Divorce On Men

Divorce is probably one of the hardest and most difficult situations anyone has to go through

. While it would be somewhat unfair to say that women get the upper hand in terms of surviving divorce because of the numerous resources and documented pieces of advice that they are able to utilize, this fact is undeniably true. Men on the other hand tend to end up either sucking in the whole thing or following whatever limited advice they can find or get. But regardless of how strong you may lead yourself to think you might be, the fact the effects of divorce on men can both be devastating and traumatizing is undeniable either.

Divorce can affect you in many different ways physically, mentally and emotionally. In order to pull through this difficult stage in your life you will need to counteract the negative impacts of divorce in your life as they come. Here are some examples:

Ego: Everything is low at this point. You feel drained and the first one to take a nosedive will be your ego or how we see ourselves from the eyes of others. You're entire world seems to be closing in, your self-worth is at its lowest point; all that you have believed and tried to establish is gone in a flash what now? To get out from this state, you will need to re-evaluate yourself, try to see yourself as a person first and do not concentrate on what others see.

Self Esteem: Your self esteem has just taken probably the hardest blow it can take. You see yourself as someone not worth loving, a failure, someone who has been rejected, and someone who is hated. Now your self esteem is hungry and looking for someone to feed it. Your wife used to be the one to feed this beast but because of separation, it will be looking for someone or anyone to give it compliments or stroke its ego in order to make us feel worthy again. To deal with low self esteem, you will need to replace it with something called self respect.

Self respect: Self respect is liking yourself despite of all that has happened. Respecting yourself will means that you are able to accept all of your shortcoming and strengths and will become less judgmental and more accepting of others. The stronger your self-respect is, the faster you will be able to get out of the negative and damaging effects that divorce has brought upon you.

Dealing with the effects of divorce on men is one of the most difficult and painful situations that one will be faced with, but it is not impossible to overcome. As long as you are willing to take steps in order to make things better they eventually will, and while the pain and suffering that you might be feeling now is unbearable, in time they will pass as well.
