The Week Most Divorced Dads Quietly Relapse (And No One Talks About It)
from Divorced Dads of America: The Rebuild · host Anthony Thompson, Founder of Divorced Dads of America
Late February is where discipline fades. The motivation from January wears off. Loneliness creeps back in. Old habits feel familiar. And most divorced dads don’t fall apart publicly… They relapse quietly. In this episode, I break down: Why relapse spikes this time of year The neuroscience behind stress and impulse The identity collapse most men won’t admit The 3-minute interrupt tool to stop the spiral Why structure beats motivation every time You are not weak. You are dysregulated. And that can be rebuilt. What are you actually avoiding when you relapse? Who knows when you’re struggling? What identity are you reinforcing with your habits? Are you trying to rebuild alone?
