I'm extremely angry at my soon to be ex-wife and for good reason. I know that I can't live with the anger forever and I somehow need to give that up but at the moment...I simply can't seem to.

We're still in the process of divorce where we're splitting up a business she asked me to leave in order to work on our marriage. Once I was out of the business...she moved out of the house and I was immediately unemployed...that makes me angry. In this economy; I'm having an impossible time finding a job even with a masters degree.

My anger affects other relationships...especially with my 10yo daughter...she noted that I'm "tense" all the time and she's right. I've been to a counselor and he seems to think I'm going through a normal breakup process but I guess I need to reapproach him on ways to set aside my anger.

I'm not sure if I'm asking a question...looking for support or what my expectations are...I'm just at the end of my rope with where to go.

Thanks for reading.

I am sorry you are going through so much stress.
I don;t know what to say except- try to think of this situation as a temporary inconvenience, which you will get through and emerge better, stronger.
Hang in there! Talking to God and praying always help calm me down.

There was another man in the picture when she filed for divorce...doesn't make it feel any better but I'm over it. We've been living separately for months and I could care less whether she's sleeping or living with someone else. I find myself in a position where someone wants to destroy me financially and as a person. I need to move on...and I just can't. Maybe when it's all resolved I may be able to get over it. Right now...the anger just eats at me.

Thanks for responding

Thanks for the thoughts...I try to think of it as a temporary inconvenience but I'm living it every moment.

Appreciate the thoughts about talking to God...not something I've been able to do in the last few decades.
