Pandemic Lockdowns Result In Sharp Increases in Divorce Rates

Townsville,Australia - May 29, 2022 /PressCable/

It’s been a little over a year since the world was hit by a pandemic that has forced many countries into lockdown. While this has undoubtedly saved lives, it seems to have come at a cost: an increase in divorce rates. A recent study has shown that the number of divorces filed has increased by as much as 30% in some areas over the past year. This is likely due to the fact that people are stuck inside their homes with each other for long periods of time and are unable to deal with their frustrations in a healthy way. If you’re struggling in your marriage, now might be the time to consider counselling before things get worse.

The pandemic has put a lot of stress on relationships. Some people have found that they can’t handle being cooped up with their partner 24/seven. If you’re feeling suffocated or like you’re living in a pressure cooker, it might be time to take some space from your spouse. Of course, this is easier said than done but now lockdowns are easing it’s important to make time to be alone.

It could be as simple as going for a walk by yourself every day or taking up a new hobby that you can do alone.

Giving each other space is just one way to deal with the increased stress of living in close quarters. If you’re not used to being around your partner all the time, it can be tough to adjust. It’s important to be patient with each other and try to see this as an opportunity to get to know your spouse in a new way. Maybe you’ll learn that you have more in common than you thought or maybe you’ll find that you need some time apart after all. Only time will tell.

Whatever your situation, it’s important to remember that there are options outside of divorce at your disposal and there are a lot of people and organisations in the community that can help you get things back on track. If things are past the point of return it might be worth speaking to a divorce lawyer.
