I have been in this position myself in the past. I found it helpful to bring the focus back to other things. I focused on myself for a while: my interests, my studies and my family and friends. When I shifted my attention away from the lost person, new things filled that place in my mind and in my heart. Over time, life changed and life went on. That person is likely to always be with you in one way or another: their legacy lives on in you. You will realise however that you can go on living your life without them; though it's not always easy.

You need to focus on yourself. You can live without somebody else. But you need to learn with live with yourself. And learn to love yourself. You are amazing as you are. And you have so many great qualities. I know it might be hard, but try and think what qualities this person you can’t live without had, and think about how you can improve yourself. Please try and put your mind in other activities and hanging out with friends and socialising, it will help. And please never think you’re alone because you’re not. There’s always somebody who cares and wants to talk.

This is honestly a really difficult question to answer. But first off, I'm so glad that you made it to today! Each day is a new day, and even though I know it's very difficult to be without them, you're still here. There's power in trusting yourself to make your own decisions and trusting yourself to live your life the way you would want to. As sad as it may sound, you can live a life without the person it seems as of right now you can't live without. But starting to make decisions independently is a very important skill. If you can start simple, like doing things you enjoy doing and working your way up to responding to situations in a way that you would chose to rather than someone else, this can help you to become a more independent individual. Finding support from others by communicating to them how you're feeling as well can also be very beneficial.

It's always difficult to see tomorrow without someone you truly care about. If it's hard to see tomorrow, how can you possibly look beyond that to a new life? By taking it one step at a time. Time can heal, and prosper new growth, but time can also be the hindrance. Putting time into a box, and wishing it to go faster, makes one hurt, makes pain insufferable. Focus on the small wins. The hours, that turn into days that turn into weeks, that eventually fade into month and years. By taking a small step now, filled with anguish, anxiety, fear and pain can begin to start you on a path to recovering and moving yourself forward. Don't be afraid, there are people out here to support you, to help you. Some days are easy, other days are hard, but I can assure you that you can begin your life anew, living only for you, and taking a step away from the clutch that has been binding you. All it takes is the first small step.

Try to keep busy. Find a hobby you enjoy doing or take the offer to have a night out enjoy yourself learn to love yourself all over again. Remember it’s ok to be alone it’s ok to be sad. Talk about your feelings and remember people care about you. Focus on you and what you can do for yourself instead of what you can do for others. Sometimes we believe we can’t live without someone but that’s because we became use to that person. It became a routine. Make a new routine and become a new version of you.

Take time to think about yourself. Care for you, and look after you. Remember that you are an amazing person, and try to think about all your amazing personality traits. Engage in activities that motivate you, and spend time around those who bring out the best version of yourself. Remember happy moments from the past and learn from moments that didn't go to plan. You may have lost an important person but try to see the light, everyone lives life as a maze, and everyone has there own path to follow. You will have played an important role in that person's life so embrace that fact. And remember that your life is in your own hands, take it wherever.

Same happened with me but time heels everything. Trust me I started focusing on my work more, it was not easy at all but when I realized working with dedication is supporting me a lot to move on in my life I felt alive. Also thinking about some one who has left you without even thinking about the consequences on you and without even giving it second thought is not even worth to even remember for. Think about your likes and dislikes and think about your family before giving importance to someone who has left you and may he has moved on and you still stuck with him/her and stuck in your old relationship memories. Not at all good, move on with a bang and sow them what mistake he/she did leaving you alone

First things first, start over. Re-fresh your brain. Stop thinking about erase them from your life because no one has the privilege to stop you from living your life. So forget about them, delete pictures, videos, anything that is going to remind you of them. When you have left that person in the past start moving forward. Get yourself together, do your hair, get a tan, get your nails done, take a few photos upload them to your Instagram page with a great caption. From that point start living the life you always wanted to live and dont let anyone hold you back

It will be a hard process. Maybe one of the toughest things you have to do. You have to figure out that next step you have to take in order to begin. Doesn't have to be a big step, just as long as you are taking one. But it might get difficult to do each one because every step becomes harder to take then the last. But you don't have to do it alone. Ask anyone who is willing to help you. I know each situation can be different, whether it be a love one or a family member. But know that your happiness and wellbeing is important. And you should do whatever it takes to stay healthy and happy.

If you’re telling yourself you can’t cope with the thought of life without the man you love, then here’s your your first step towards healing: pay attention to what you’re saying to yourself.
Let go of the “I can’t live without him†and the “he was my life†thoughts, or they will destroy you. Those lies will drag you down and keep you under the oppressive and wrong belief that he is the reason you’re alive.
Instead, focus on these ways to grieve the loss you’re experiencing so you can start healing your heart.
“Grief can surprise you with its power, its unpredictable timing, its fathomless depths, it’s transformational potential, and the scope of change it brings into your life
