I bought this book at a low point in the divorce process, wondering if I would ever stop feeling depressed and angry, and thinking I was somehow a bad person for having those feelings. Imagine my surprise when I turned the pages of the book to find that I was NORMAL for feeling angry and depressed! Giving validation for my feelings, and taking ownership of them, gave me what I needed to master them and move on, standing up for what I needed in the divorce process and giving myself permission to cry sometimes. This book helped me become stronger and showed me that there can be a brighter future after divorce. I highly recommend this for anyone going through a divorce, especially those in “crazy time” whose feelings are not being validated. Divorce is the death of a dream, maybe in some ways worse than the loss of a loved one through a natural death, and it is okay to grieve. This book can help people cope with that loss, learn from it, and move on to a better life.

Crazy time.
This book is aptly titled. It’s about surviving divorce and coming out on top. It is hard to start over, to build a new life, but that’s what must be done. Well.

Crazy Time
I read this book 20 years ago when I was getting a divorce. It was the only book that gave me understanding and where I could feel I was not alone in my feelings.

Never get a divorce without it!
This book kept me sane in my own divorce, and I give it as a gift to all my friends who are in the middle of that craziness called divorce.

The Divorce Bible
Trafford’s book has been in print for 25 years for a good reason. It really is a brilliant analysis of marriage and how it falls apart.

Excellent, but…
This book is a classic, but is a bit outdated (published 17 years ago), and, as one reviewer noted, it really is going to help only in a limited number of situations where both…

Crazy Time
Hands down the best book I’ve read to prepare for my divorce. Very readable! Deals with the emotional upheaval, the “what the hell happened” feelings and the “now what?

Read it Cover to Cover!
An excellent book for those going through divorce. I am a 50-yr. old woman, in the beginning stages of divorce.

Helpful.
Crazy Time clearly was a ground breaking book, and one of the first to confront the new era of the “easy and common” divorce of the eighties to now.

A very helpful book
I read many books when I was struggling through my divorce, but this is the only one that I have recommended to anyone else.
