I separated from my husband about a year ago for 6 months and it felt GREAT! We ended up getting back together but my reason wasbecause of our 2 young sons. He's a great father but a terrible husband. I lived a terrible life because my parents split when I was 4. I'm willing to be not completely happy for the sake of my boys growing up with a good dad.

I am sure everyone feels differently as people separate for many reasons. When I kicked my first husband out I was angry and hurt at the time(he cheated) Later I got mad and later still I got a good attorney and got everything I wanted. Not unreasonable demands just what was rightfully mine. Then I went on a rebuild my life as a single mom and was happy.

Like someone kicked you in the gut. You don't feel like eating or sleeping. You can't concentrate or think straight and feel like crying all the time. This lasts a week or two. Then if you are smart, you will get a lawyer and get mad. Look out for your financial interests - especially if children are involved. See a doctor for anti-depressants to help get you through the rough patches. You WILL get through this. Millions of us women have experienced this and gone on to happier relationships. The best of luck.

It feels like you're lost and there is nothing to look forward to. You have panick attacks and feel very lonely. You can't eat or sleep and nothing sounds like fun. You cry alot. You find yourself with alot of extra time on your hands. It seems like everyone is married or seeing someone. Then you start over day by day and find ways to fill your time. Slowly you start to remember the reason you separated and you actually begin to feel normal again and glad to be rid of him. Once you're over it you wonder why you stuck with the asshole for so long to begin with.

Some people adjust real well. However, I couldn't eat, sleep, concentrate on anything and I cried a whole lot. I was married for 13 years, together for 18, with 2 small children when we were divorced. It was a horrible time! It took me several years to adjust to my new life and it wasn't easy.

It feels like a death in the family.
