I've been with DH for 20yrs. He's been really hard work to live with over the years but we had some great times too and part of me will always love him (we have 2 teenage DCs). He is an alcoholic and he absolutely cannot live with us any more - his relapses have been unbearable for all of us. Now he has finally gone the house is calm and peaceful. But how long will it be until this all feels normal to me and the DCs? I'm relieved that he's gone as i don't have to watch his self destruction but I'm also feeling a massive void and the house feels 'empty'. How long will this last?
