"Learn all you can, heal all you can, and stop holding the precious butterfly in your hands so tightly that it can't fly and be free." - Bruce Fisher
"Getting over your divorce will take you a while - probably a year or more. I know that's not what you want to hear, especially in the age of 'one- minute' and 'chicken soup' cures. But in the real world you won't go from married person to divorced person to fulfilled independent person in a few weeks, or even a few months. It takes only a few hours to read Rebuilding, but this book can help you cut months off the time it takes to put your life back together." - Robert E. Alberti, Ph.D.
"How does he know exactly what I'm feeling?" That's what most readers say about Rebuilding. If you're hurting after a divorce, you need this supportive step-by-step program for putting your life back together. The newly revised and updated third edition offers just the right balance of shoulder-to-cry-on and kick-in-the-pants to help you get through the confusing and often-painful process.
This book gives excellent, practical advice for toiling through 19 stages of recovery in a divorce. Each chapter is unique, and gives homework for the person to work through topics like anger, loneliness, grieving, etc. Fisher describes many types of love, and allows a confused person to sort out where they and their spouse actually stood with each other, both during and after a marriage. Unravelling confusion is important to anybody going through a divorce. We recommend this book to anybody who has been dumped by their spouse. Buy it, keep it, and go back to it many times over the months you may be trying to "climb your mountain".
The book is based on years of experience in seminars for divorcees, and there are lots of examples that are well explained and discussed. There are also specific "assignments" for each stage. For instance, there are specific strategies for dealing with fear and anger, and these are very concrete and helpful.

From the Publisher:
Internationally renowned divorce therapist Bruce Fisher and his 700,000-copy bestselling guide, Rebuilding: When Your Relationship Ends, have made the long and difficult process of divorce recovery a lot easier. Fisher’s divorce process rebuilding blocks offer a proven, supportive nineteen-step process for putting one’s life back together after divorce. Built on more than two decades of research and practice, Rebuilding reflects feedback from, and the experiences of hundreds of thousands of divorced men and women who have read and used Rebuilding. Clearly the most widely used approach to divorce recovery, FisherÆs rebuilding model has made the divorce process less traumatic, even healthier, for his readers. The third edition, revised and updated with the assistance of psychologist and marriage and family therapist Dr. Robert Alberti, continues BruceÆs tradition of straight-to-the-heart response to the needs of those who are divorcing or divorced.

So go ahead, acknowledge that you're hurt. It's natural, expected, healthy, even okay to hurt. Pain is nature's way of telling us that something in us needs to be healed, so let's get on with the healing.
Can we help? We think so. We can share with you some of the learning that takes place in the divorce process seminars Bruce conducted for over 25 years. The growth that takes place in people during a ten-week seminar is remarkable. Maybe by sharing with you some of these ideas and some of the feedback we've had from the hundreds of thousands of readers of the first edition of this book, we can help you learn how to get through the hurt also.
There is an adjustment process after a divorce - with a beginning, an end, and specific steps of learning along the way. While you're feeling some of the pain, you're more anxious to learn how to be healed. If you are like most of us, you probably have had some destructive patterns of behavior for years - maybe since your childhood. Change is hard work. While you were in a love relationship you might have been comfortable enough that you felt no need to change. But now there is that pain. What do you do? Well, you can use the pain as motivation to learn and to grow. It's not easy. But you can.

Going through divorce is difficult, alienating, and painful. I found this book to be a great source of material on the stages of pain that you go through with a divorce. This book takes you through the building blocks of what it will take for you to go through, and ultimately rebuilt from. Some of the topics covered are denial, fear, adaptation, friendship, loneliness, self-worth, transition,love, trust, and future relationships.
I found myself clearly identifying with many of the stages that others go through in a divorce. It was refreshing to hear what you feel is normal and others feel that way too. Fisher and Alberti definately speak with insight, and understanding on this topic. This book was part of the reading along with the a divorce recovery class I took, this book was an important reasource in the class. It is definately worth picking up or checking out at your local library.
