Have you heard the one about the cat who got divorced? He was a cheetah… get it?
Maybe it's too soon to laugh, but could there be a role for humour in divorce?
I know that divorce is no joke, especially when it involves betrayal and abuse. But amidst the bitterness and anger, is there a point where we need to learn to laugh again?
Humour, especially dark humour, has a psychological benefit. Gallows humour, born from dire situations, allows us to find the funny even in the darkest times.
Professions dealing with trauma often use humour as a coping mechanism. Theories like superiority and relief suggest that humour empowers us and helps vent stored trauma.
While humour shouldn't mask our true feelings, it can be a valuable coping mechanism. Laughing at the absurdities of divorce can reduce stress and promote healing.
As time passes, finding humour in the situation can be part of the healing process. Laughing at our ex's quirks can help remove them from the pedestal we put them on.
So this week, I ‘try’ to give you some divorce jokes and funny quotes from famous personalities that highlight the absurdities of divorce and can bring a smile to our faces.
Ultimately, humour can really help us navigate the complexities of divorce and move forward with resilience and strength.
So, let's embrace the laughter and turn pain into punchlines.
Because in the end, we deserve to smile and be happy, no matter what.
Sending you so much love (and laughter)
