Of course the truth of depression is that it never goes away. But this is something to try to get through a few months
This is double edged. I left my wife about 3 months ago now - I was really, really, not happy and I finally had enough after 8 years. Everyone had an opinion. People I thought were very good friends turned on me, gave me shit for leaving (friends of mine; not friends of ours) and others were very supportive (mostly family). Sometimes to many opinions are a bad thing; but to few can be bad also though.
Take the opinions you can get; run a filter or 2 on them and go with your heart.
(I don't talk to the people that gave me shit for doing it anymore; and I'm much more happier now, both without the wife in my life, and without those friends in my life)
