They say the 3 most stressful things in life are Moving house Death of someone close and Divorce
Moving house once its done. its over Death is Finite so in the main you come to terms with it. Divorce There is always hope that reconciliation may happen. Obviousely not where both parties agree to the devorce
I moved house last August, in fact it was the 4th time i moved house in the last 12 years. Very tiring business, this moving house - but stressful? Not really. I find it strange to see it mentioned in the same line with 'death of someone close' and 'divorce'. These last two (in my opinion) should have a far bigger impact on one's happiness - although divorce can mean a kind of liberation as well.
