Good evening,
Thanks for contacting me regarding your question. I would suggest seeking counseling or therapy due to the fact getting divorced may be a traumatic process and transition. I would suggest making a list of all the things you wanted to accomplish before your decision to get married, as well as what you really miss most about being married.

As a therapist, I would recommend that it could be beneficial for you to see a therapist after a divorce, especially if you're experiencing any physical or mental health symptoms that are concerning you. Divorce can be a highly stressful life event, and it can impact your overall well-being in various ways.
Whether you see a doctor of clinical psychology or not is dependent on how you feel. If you are happy about the divorce there is no need. If not, then absolutely. Dr Burke www.holisticwellnessconsultingllc.com
Therapy would be a good way to process through the loss of this relationship. You might also consider attending a grief support group.
Yes because you might sometimes feel depressed often and that will get worse over time so you would need to see a therapist
I'm not sure what for, but you can have an overall physical with blood work done just to check-in. One doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the other unless there's something else going on.
It is always great to speak with a therapist to process and understand the meaning of divorce for you
If your experiences physical symptoms of stress, depression, or panic, then yes see a physician but I would urge you to seek Counseling because divorce can cause grieving. You no longer have the life you once chose and have to recenter yourself, relearn yourself without that person. Having a little help too find a new balance is important.
Stages of grieving death (denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance). When experienced temporarily as part of the process of grieving, each step has its beneficial purposes.
I wouldn't recommend seeing a doctor as of yet. But if you suffering from anxiety, depression, or anything Cognitive then sitting down with a therapist/Counselor will help.
