One obvious way to combat this problem is to stay as active as possible and to build a support system of friends and family. Staying in contact with friends and family and remaining as active as possible is a crucial necessity to a healthy, active lifestyle. If you bowl, join a league. If you do crafts, enroll in classes. If you are a member of a health club, get off that couch and go work out.
Exercise Is great for healthy bodies and minds.
Building a new support network can be intimidating. Friends tend to choose sides in a divorce. After a death family and friends, not knowing what to say or how to deal with the obvious grief of the person left behind, tend to avoid them. This is a time when support is essential and isolation intensifies and lengthens the grief process. Joint married friends drift away because the glue that created commonality and connection disintegrates between them and the single person as lifestyles change and take off in different directions.
