I'm really struggling with depression as my husband of 7 years asked for a divorce a few weeks ago. We are still sleeping in the same bed and living together but aren't really talking or anything else. He moves out the end if this month and I move back woth my parents the end if November. I feel so overwhelmed and hurt.

So sorry. What was the reason? Do you have someone to talk to?

Sorry for your circumstances. I went through same thing 6 years ago but divorce was long time coming. I drove ex wife to it but it still takes 2 for a marriage to fail. It allowed me to examine my life and take new direction. Painful but in end the best thing to ever happen. I think we are all happier. Good luck
