Struggling With the Void After My First Breakup

Hey everyone, I’ve been feeling a huge void since my first breakup. I know I don’t need a relationship to be happy, but I really miss that deep connection, and it’s leaving me feeling lonely and uncertain. Some days, I feel like I don’t even know what I’m supposed to do next, and it’s hard to shake this feeling that something’s missing. I’m trying to focus on joy and trust myself, but it’s hard when the pain feels so constant. There’s this dull feeling that’s been with me every day since the breakup- despite all my efforts to build a new life for myself. My ex was such a big source of joy for me, and now that they’re gone, life isn’t joyless, but it’s just not as joyful as it was. Has anyone else experienced something similar? Any advice for navigating this feeling?

Its normal to be deeply wounded by your first break up. With time it will be better I promise. After my first break up I thought i was dying of emotional pain. Give yourself the time you need to be sad and let go when your ready. New and great things will come your way good luck xx
