You should talk to someone that you are comfortable with and share all of your feelings so that they don't build up inside. You should make sure the person is trustworthy and that they really care about you and will be able to help you manage your depression.

Act as if you were not depressed. Keep seeing your friends and taking care of yourself as you normally would, even if you don't feel like it. Keep doing the kind of things you would enjoy if you weren't feeling down. Work on finding a new routine - replace the things you used to do with your ex with something else. Don't get stuck at home alone doing nothing. If you don't get better soon, get help.

By reminding yourself that there is more to your life than your ex-partner. Family, friends, school/work, hobbies, all these things are still there for you and will help you move on and feel better in time.

honestly, you have to give yourself time. It's okay to be depressed afterwards, you built a connection with that person, and you need time to heal after ending that connection.

You do things that make you happy without a second thought. You stop thinking about the other person for a while and only focus on your self. When you are ready, come to terms with the breakup. Find the good reasons before you find the bad.
