Some days, i feel happy, and other days i feel completely lost. I miss the bubbly innocent version of myself who could enjoy little things without overthinking everything. This breakup has changed me in ways I never expected. I don’t understand why I struggle to feel genuinely happy why crowded places make me anxious or why I sometimes feel like I’ll never heal from this. Is it normal to feel this way after a painful breakup.
Today is 38th day of no contact
It takes time, a broken heart is a powerful physical thing. Use the year to get to know yourself. Start a hobby, or join a fitness class for the endorphins.
Don’t surpress how you feel. If you know that crying will lead to more crying, just cry, get it all out.
thank you, i’m trying to focus on my studies and rediscover myself. some days are just harder than others, but i guess healing takes time.
For context: took me 2 years to fully get over a 3 year relationship.
By year 1 I was mostly healed, but my body was a mess and I just wasn’t ready for anything new.
By year 2 I joined a gym, felt a bit better about myself and started dating again.
People aren’t wrong when they say “gym up” for this kind of thing. I do think fitness can really accelarate your healing journey, and wish I’d started sooner
Thank you for sharing your experience. i’m glad you’re doing better now. My relationship was of 13 months, so i guess i might need a few more months lol
Haha yeah, quite likely. Swift recovery, stranger!
