It DOES take time, to get past something like that. You just have to keep on going. It WILL be TOUGH, but there will come a time when things won't seem as bad. In MY case, it seemed like I never would get to where I could do anything. I could not get organized to take care of things and I kept hearing friends say to just take my time, do this do that. But, it just seemed so urgent to me, to get to where I could live with myself (without HER). Now, for me, it's been 1yr and 2 months. And, It's been the LONGEST 2 months I have EVER spent! It CAN BE tough to handle, but ya just gotta keep on going.
Just remember, there are folks here who will be happy to listen, ANYTIME you need to talk, rant, what ever. And I am ONE of those. I've bent some ears in MY time, believe me.
