DISS. = Divorce Initiated Suicide Syndrome

DISS. The Latin for Hell

But also for Divorce Initiated Suicide Syndrome.

Sometimes it is almost immediate. Sometimes it takes a while for a broken heart to bleed itself dry. Sometimes it is the added pain of an estranged child or a demand for child support from a man already totally dispossessed and flat broke.  Sometimes it is unexpected by supportive friends.
