Well i allways treat myself with my favorite things such as food, some new items. After that i just start communicating with other people without hesitation, so i wouldn't feel so lonely and vulnerable, people pass by and we keep on living, nothing is permanent.

After a breakup, things are definitely hard. But always try to stay strong and don't ever keep those unpleasant feelings to yourself. Tell them to a trusted confidante, and I assure you it will only do you good. That girl/boy is definitely out there, s/he will definitely show up in your life soon, because, you and her/him are meant to be.

Distract yourself, eat lots of cake. Hang out with your friends, Hang out with your family. Do something to reward yourself and make you feel good. When feelings of separation come up, think about what's important to you in life, and do something to reinforce that.

My boyfriend just send me this what do I do?
I noticed i have been acting weird lately and haven’t responded to you. I feel I am in a place in our relationship where i don’t what i want at the moment. It isn’t you its me, you never did anything to make me feel this way. I need a break in our relationship to find myself and truly feel if i want to be in the relationship or if we should just end it. It wouldn’t be fair for me to drag you along if don’t feel the same, not saying i do or don’t. Please give me space and time to discover myself and see what i want. Like you said before to tell you and be honest with you about what i felt about the relationship, well i am doing it now. I’m sorry if this is a shock to you but i rather tell you now that later.

Breakups are very difficult, and I am sorry you are going through that. Many times after a relationship ends we question what we did wrong, we question if we will ever be happy again, we long for those moments we were happy, but truthfully you will be happy again. Use this as time to reconnect with yourself. Being alone can be great in the sense you do not have to make anyone else happy but yourself. Re-evaluate what you want out of a partner. Did your last partner have any traits that you didn't like? Focus on that and how you do not want that to happen in your next relationship. Surround yourself with positive people, and do things for yourself that make you happy. Give yourself a day to be sad, but pick yourself up the next day and do something positive. Eventually it will get better â¤ï¸ 💕

Dealing with depression after a breakup is like dealing with the death of a loved one. The five stages of grief are part of break ups. It is something that only time helps heal. I still remember my last serious relationship was with a man who was from a completely different religion and culture than me and how the relationship drained me dry. I was so in love with him and when he broke up with me I completely isolated myself from the world. I couldn't sleep or eat but all I wanted to do stay in bed. I remember the best support I had were my friends. Having good friends is the best thing you can have when trying to get over a break up.

Breaking up is hard especially if more so if it wasnt your choice and you are still in love with that person it ican seem difficult to let go. I would say allow yourself to be sad and to feel the loss "that grieving feeling" it's ok but it's also important that you have friends and family you can talk to when you need to. Also if you can if there is a particular hobby that you try and keep yourself busy or maybe throw yourself into something new. Ultimately focus on you and doing what you need to in order to feel better
