Sorry to hear that. Glad all is well! My mom and stepdad went through a nasty battle of a divorce in the late 90s. It took her a decade to recover financially.
My divorce was a cakewalk. $300 to a paralegal for the papers, 1/2 our savings account which amounted to $600, and agreeing to take on all our credit card debt which amounted to about $1,000. In turn she wanted no alimony, she walked from the house we just bought, she left my 401k alone. I got a roomate for $400 a month and was out of debt and moved on in about 2 months.
