Trauma from Going Through a Divorce
For the divorcee, divorce can be psychologically traumatic because if unexpected, the individual could feel shocked and powerless to the event. The person could also feel personally betrayed by their significant other, leaving confusion, pain, and deep, emotional scarring.
In cases where a person needs to initiate divorce to escape an abusive relationship, trauma can still be present because not only has the person been experiencing abuse or witnessing their children being abused but the abuse typically intensifies during divorce proceedings.
