I'm so sorry. Change is always painful.
Do your best to find things that you really enjoy. Take this opportunity to work on who you want to be, and surround yourself with people who know you and support you. New friends are often the best kind - no baggage! Volunteering is great advice, as is joining any social groups you can find. Do all the stuff you didn't do before - take dancing lessons, join a book club, take cooking classes, whatever! Remember that the flip side of the scary part of being on your own is the freedom you'll have. You'll still be a dad, and you'll still have your kids to think about, but look at this as an opportunity to find yourself independent of your definition as "Husband" and "Father." Best of luck!
