Reading his books and listening to Jordan Peterson have done more for me throughout this process than I can put into words. None of this is fair, pretty, just. Stop looking at that. Turning a keen eye on yourself and what you want for your life and future are key. How you attain that. What are you willing to do. What you’re capable of. (Good and bad) The man is brilliant. A modern day philosopher and psychologist.

Basically you get shaken so bad that when you recover, you know that there isn't anything else as bad as what you went through. So you don't care anymore. What really woke me up was how obviously unfair and unjust that the whole process is. And that no one cared.

It sounds like this is something anybody in their late 40s and early 50s might experience anyway.

I’m starting to experience losing many loved ones at the same time kids are getting older and one is off to college. And our family doesn’t do “kid stuff“ anymore.

Your ego gets rebuilt for sure going through family court. You see behind the curtain.

Its up to you to rebuild as a shell of your former self, or a reinvented 2.0 version.

Best thing to ever happen to me is see the betrayal first hand.

Rebuilt much better, much calmer and realized how simple and trivial daily issues are compared to before.

For sure. I feel like a robot, I’m numb. Almost like a villain of some sort. I’m living… I’m joyful. But deep inside. There is a deep… deep wound. That has shaped me…

I wake up now every day and all I have for vision is a million dollars and setting my mother safe for the rest of my life.

I don’t trust… I don’t idealize…

So yes, Ego death. Yes.
