The marital breakdown, takes place in the form of a split (in fact or legal) or a divorce, is a time of great change for the individual. Ceases to live with who, until then, had been the most important person in his life, and glimpses ahead horizon is full of unknowns and questions. No matter how strong or confident could be the person, the consequences of it could be traumatic and painful, greatly undermining their self-esteem and confidence, making you feel you have failed in the most vital project which had previously undertaken. Sadness after separation or divorce is normal when the couple breaks that both (former) spouses are experiencing a period of mourning and despair, whose duration depends on the degree of deterioration that had reached its mutual status, the chances of reconciliation (especially in the case of separations) or harboring feelings that both follow each other. It is usually estimated at around one year extension of this depressive period character.
However, the drop in self-esteem is a parallel and somewhat independent of it, so I could go on for much longer, not to put a remedy in time. The loss of self esteem, how fight it? The term self-esteem refers to how we feel about ourselves, both in relation to what we perceive as our highest values and strengths and in what we understand as defects and areas for improvement. This is influenced both by our physical plane (our appearance) and by other factors of an intellectual or psychological (our intelligence, degree of extroversion, way of being and security). The most positive thing always happens on the grounds of an objective and realistic and accept yourself as you are, with your faults and virtues. You should stop seeing through the prism of your ex-partner, and thus get rid of any distortion that this might. Trying to revive your social life, coming up with new people and even exercise and lead a healthier lifestyle are all factors that will help you feel happier in the day to day, so that the traumas and tribulations of your break may become a thing of the past.
