I left my husband a week ago and... I feel fine? Don't get me wrong there's moments of tears... but I don't think I realized that my constant depression and anxiety was because of him and fear or sadness of his disapproval. It helps that I have family help and a place to live while I figure things out (something many don't have, so I'm blessed in that)

But I don't even feel numb... just contented. I thought I'd be a constant mess. But its like... my love dried up when I realized how he was doing me wrong. There are aspects of my life I miss... but overall, I'm fine.

Is this normal? I've had about a month to process things when I decided I was probably leaving him, but I expected being alone to be harder. Its so simple... I only have to worry about me right now, and my dog, instead of thinking and planning for two adults. Picking up for two adults, etc.

EDIT

Like guys. I've done self care. Things that should be simple and easy but I often felt like a burden doing them instead of things like picking up after his ass or cleaning up after what I cooked or packing his lunch (that one wasn't on him... I enjoyed doing that) I washed my face and did a full face mask and everything.
