Every divorce is different. In my case, there were several impacts. Emotionally, I’d known it was over for a while but insisted we try counseling. Things were okay for a bit but then he realized that most of the work to be done was his and he gave up, said he wanted a divorce. I’d been prepared for the end and it was what I really wanted, but it was still hard to get over it. But I picked myself up and made it a year of self improvement and didn’t stress about it too much.
Financially it was hard. We’d accrued a lot of debt together, and had to split that. For the first year I lived pretty frugally to pay off my share of the debt. Fortunately I had a good job and good salary and after about a year I was able to recover.
Physically though, I lost some weight as a result of being frugal and more focused on myself.
