For me, it was the days prior to my wife moving out that were the worst. I was expecting life after move-out day to be lonely. But actually, after my wife moved out, things were considerably brighter. I'm assume that a lot of that feeling was because I no longer had to walk on eggshells. Hang in there, things do get better so don't lose hope.
I had a lot of anger, but I was generally able to use the anger constructively. I did a lot of home improvements and I think anger provides a boost in strength and endurance (just speculating). I also came to enjoy poking fun at the OM. Apparently I took it a little too far; my lawyer called me this past Tuesday and told me I'd been served with a motion for contempt. (I'm guessing someone was unhappy that I'd asked him in public if he'd been recently sodomized.) So, if there's an OM, try not to be too hard on him.
I hope things go well for you. Chin up. Second star to the right and straight on until morning.
