When you read through this sub, there are some common techniques to deal with your partner asking for a divorce.

Low contact, grey rocking, 180 etc, but the most universal one is to join a gym.

Usually the reason is to work out that anger and just plain take care of yourself.

What I found (6 months in) is that the gym does nothing for my anger, or my grief, but what it does an extremely good job of is focusing on me.

The most fundamental thing we have is our bodies. They are always ours. Even in getting married, we still have bodily autonomy.

Divorce breaks our minds, which affects our bodies.

Working out with my body, makes me focus on me. Allows me to take the physical ability to push and get stronger mentally.

To look and feel stronger, feels more like me. I think generally before divorce, a lot of us get run down physically. This is a reset, to get back to who you were before.

You without your ex, and I think we can all agree, that was a good place to be.

Anyway, just offering another reason to workout. It has made a huge difference in my recovery.

Looking for your stories, either about working out, or other things that have been really helpful.

Good luck out there.
