I know exactly how you feel. My H and I work in the same field and I too miss being able to bounce work ideas off of him. Just one of the millions of things I miss. I've lived this for a year now and just five minutes ago I said to myself, for about the thousandth time--"I miss my old life". But there is no going back, only forward. I still struggle with how to do that without the support of my H. Keep taking one day at a time. It does get better. I used to think about my situation every second of every day. Now I maybe think about it every thirty minutes and have worked hard to not let it consume me. It may not seem like a lot of improvement but it gives me hope that one day I'll get through an entire day without thinking about what I've lost.
