IB you will make it. We all do, in some manner or another. The holidays are extremely tough. Holidays were always special and fun and then when h left I had become to dread them.

It took me 4 Christmases of being depressed before I finally was able to get out and socialize with friends and feel good regardless of what my h was doing. He never came around on Christmas nor did he respond to any texts or calls. This was a very very painful time for me.

Do your best to pick yourself up and make NEW memories. In hindsight I wished I hadn't spent so much time being depressed and missing what I didn't have, but enjoying my beautiful children right in front of me.
