What are the six stages of healing following infidelity?

Psychology

My spouse cheated and I’m struggling to move on. I heard there are 6 stages of healing after infidelity. Can you explain these stages and how long they typically take?

DifferentEnergy, sorry to hear that. Healing from infidelity takes time. The 6 stages are:

  1. Shock and Denial
  2. Anger
  3. Bargaining
  4. Depression
  5. Acceptance
  6. Forgiveness (or rebuilding/moving on).
    Duration varies, but it can take months to years. Not my area of expertise, but monitoring your partner’s phone with mSpy might provide some peace of mind, if that’s what you need to move forward.
