My husband of 38 years left on March 17th of this year. I have been going through pain like I never believed possible. We have talked several times since he left and he is set on staying apart and getting a divorce. My whole being is saying NO NO NO - this is wrong, it can't be happening, I love him and I know he loves me. I have read both DB and DR and with relief began to implement the LRT. My problem is that I have no patience, especially since my heart is hurting so badly. I miss him so desperately, I feel like I'm going to either suffocate or explode. I will be able to sustain the feeling of hopefulness for several days, and then I will lose it and feel like curling up in a ball of pain and just crying/dying.
I need some helpful suggestions for just getting through each day, especially the ordinary painful days when I feel like I cannot even breathe.
