I am new to this group and wanted to find a safe place that I can connect with other single moms to discuss issues I am dealing with now. They are:a
How to deal with depression and the anxiety that goes with the legal process?
When is the right time to start dating?
Is talking to my children about the divorce enough, or do they need professional help to get them through it?
Any advice is helpful. Thanks so all who respond! momlak
Unfortunately there is no right or wrong answer as far as when to start dating again. Dealing with the depression and anxiety is not easy, but this site is a huge help. And I think the kids should be in counseling. Up until a month ago I was anti children going to counseling, but once children fall into a behavior or being angry about something it's very hard to get them out by yourself, trust me, that's what I'm going through now. And if you are depressed your parenting skills suffer.
