Finding self, There was a time when I felt exactly the way you did. So much anger and resentment....
... but it WILL pass. When? It's different for everyone.
But know that actions and steps YOU take will help it pass more quickly.
Here are a couple of things I did when I found myself with those very emotions.
1. I worked out. For me - I took up running. Running released my emotions. There are alot of street here in LA that are stained with my tears.
2. I kept busy. I got out of the house, hung out with friends, worked extra.. I kept my heart/head busy
3. Combated negative thoughts with positive ones. Every night I wrote a gratitude list. Every negative thought about x, I then produced 5 positives one. Yes - it sukked.. at first.. but eventually you stop faking it and it makes truth.
And absolutely dye your hair, buy new clothes, cross things off your bucket list. Of course... stay financially responsible... but NOW is the time to take EXQUISITE care of YOU!

Show empathy when there's pain. Show grace when warranted. Kindness in the midst of anger. Faith in the face of fear.
