I know its hard, ive had break ups as well. What you should do is keep going about your daily routines and activities. Do things you enjoy, even if right now you cant find much joy. Mourn the loss but realize you are going to be ok. Your life is full of promise.

Try and get your mind off of him. Hang out with friends, bond with family, or even do something for yourself! Get a haircut, change your hair color even. Do something that's going to make you feel better and relax you. I like to paint and play the piano when I need comfort.

You should hang out with friends, lose yourself in an activity, ... Anything that could take your mind of of him, because thinking about something often will only make you think about it more, until you start to ruminate. If this is too hard, or is working in reverse, another way is to grant yourself half an hour of thoroughly thinking about him (per day/per 12hours/...) After those 30min., you prohibit yourself of thinking about him for the rest of the time.

Try by distracting yourself to the things you like and block him from all other social apps or contacts.

Try going out more, maybe you just haven't found another person that you like as much yet. I can't help you much, since this hasn't happened to me. :)

Take your time, do things you love. Connect with other people who will support you and help you get through it, know that it's normal to miss people who are no longer in your life. Talk to someone about it, talk to your ex about it if it's necessary. Don't blame yourself for whatever happened in the past, and maybe love yourself before you love others.
