Hey man, look the bright side... imagined if you had proposed before she left, and keped the ring? Yolu would be without a girl and the money of the ring.
That said,the good thing of hitting rock botton is that theres no way, but up. 3 Years ago I was being underpaid, divorced a 6 years marriege, and was sunk in debit.
I was really depresed,for the first time of my life I cried waching a movie, and was pretty sure I was in funcional side of alcholism.
That said, I keepd it going by solving one problem at time. First, I organized all debites of my company, and made a rigid paying plan.
Then I made a deal with my dad, that I would stay at his home for 1 year, while I paid some of the debt my ex wife left me.
After that I put my company on hold for 1 and a half year, so I would not generate new taxes while paying the old ones.
I found a shit soul sucking job, but with good payment, in the capital. For almost 2 years I would spend 4 to 5 hours in traffic, just to get to this job. But small things helped me going foward.
I got close to my friends (before the pandemic). I checked out lots of books from my reading list, while I was in the bus, or train, going and back to work.
I basically sold or donated most of my possessions, basically reduced my life to small things that really mattered.
The thing is, don't try to fix everything wrong at the same time. Focus on small problems that you can solve, and after a while, even the big problems will appear to be less intimidating.
Now, finally after 3 sucking years, I reoppened my company, I paid all my debts. I still got to deal with shit from my ex from time to time, but goddamm I love being free now.
Well at least for a while. Now my ex appeared telling me shes pregnant, but shes pretty sure I'm not the father, but she's not 100% sure... well I will deal with that when the time came.
