Separated prior to death

So, at 58 years old, my wife passed away this past October. We were separated for a few years prior to that. Basically, what took her life was what drove us apart. Anyway, even for people separated, I discovered there is indeed a complicated grieving process which I'm not sure when it goes away. Everything is fine during the day but at night, the only thought I seem to have is that I somehow perpetuated/caused her death. She died hating my guts and now I'm really having trouble coping with that.
