How do you get over a Breakup?

Hi! I don't know the backstory but I hope you are ok. Sometimes people grow apart and sometimes it goes well and other times it doesn't. But it doesn't mean your life is over or that you'll never meet anyone else. People come and go, life has its ups and downs and maybe this happened to give you a better opportunity later. So don't give up on yourself bc of this. I know losing a relationship whether it be friendship or lover is really hard. But there are many other things in life you still have to experience and discover!!! Many people to meet, many places to see, etc!! So stay strong!! <3333 sending u lots of love and strength!!

I know its been said to death, but honestly the true answer is time + seeking help. I was an absolute wreck for months after a friendship breakup(knew them for 5+ years), and those were some suuuper dark times for me. I coped by writing out all of my feelings, so matter how over the top they were.

I wrote about how angry I was, how absolutely depressed I was, and drew all those feelings to the surface and expressed them so they wouldn't get bottled up inside. The more you bottle them up, the more it hurts and destroys you, even if it feels good in the short term. 

hello!! 

i think when you get into a relationship i read somewhere that’s it’s kind of like a drug and you become addicted to that person so when it’s over you kind of experience withdrawal symptoms. it just takes time to adapt to life without them and patience. don’t kind of conceal your emotions or try to get over it quickly it will happen over time. i hope  you are doing okay and good luck 

i knew a friend for 6 yrs and she left me out of anger and hated me bc of a misunderstanding that was all my fault. ik how u feel. ppl cant be replaced easily, but give it time, look for help and try to meet new-better-people. i hope this helps.

idk i just listened to "truth hurts" by lizzo for a month straight then completely forgot they were even a person i knew once.

Just get over him.

LMAOOOOOOO 

Just focus on yourself tbh just cry it out there’s no real and fast way to get over a breakup it depends on who you are just try to distract your mind and move on

i know im a little late but if you have a support system like family and friends really just kinda be in their presence. in the moment it is the last thing you want to do but rotting away really won't help. dont be scared to actually FEEL your emotions though. if you don't have a support system. reach out. i will be here for anyone who needs to talk. 

you should make new hobbies and try to have a new hobby, if u dont have one, it really ocuppies your time. getting a pet helps a lot too. people come and go, if these people got away it means they are not the right people for you and that better people are coming to ur life, you should embrace "losing"people because u didnt lose anyone; they just revelead themselves: try to meet new people as well; make new friends and take time to yourself ; go do an exercise ; it helps a lot and it keeps the mind occupied: sorry i dont know what else to say but i hope u get better

Someone else might have said something similar as well, but some things which could help are talking to someone close (family, friends, etc.) and spending more time with them, make sure to care for yourself (physically and mentally). I don't know what your situation might be, but taking in fact that you've even had to go to the hospital i suggest that you could also go to a psychologist to get help from a specialist. Another thing which could help is taking up a new hobby, exercising often, of engaging in different arts like painting or music. I hope i helped and that you're doing well!

this is an old thread but here is some advice for anyone checking for advice:

do not use someone else to "replace" the person you lost. take some time to yourself, let yourself cry and be hurt and/or angry. try to find enjoyments in the little things in life. try taking up new interests, color a or draw a picture, start a new show, play a new game, try a new restaurant. something new and exciting. no contact is hard but it is ultimately best for your healing journey. you never know if you can rekindle your relationship in the future but don't give yourself false hope, it will only hurt you more. do whatever you need to heal yourself, and maybe then if a relationship interests you, you will find the person who is meant for you. life is all about trial and error, relationships are part of that! there are billions of other people on the planet, you have all the time in the world to find your person. 

I got broken up with back in February with a guy I dated for 7 months but have been in love with for 3 years. All I can say is it takes time. Find people to talk to about it, listen to music you love, pour yourself into whatever you're passionate about be it art, writing, movies, anime,, whatever your hobbies are just try to get into them. Make sure to eat. I know when I first got dumped I had no appetite but you have to keep yourself going. Grief is a cycle and it doesn't go away over night. Just take it one day at a time. I promise there will come a day where you realize it doesn't hurt as bad. Best of luck to you <3

Here's a few tips I have gathered in my time on this earth.

1.  Reflect on your relationship , turn this into a learning moment. What could you work on? What did he do? And what things could you take away for the future? I have ruined many relationships or been in relationships that had serious red flags or problems in hindsight. 
2. Remind yourself that life gets better, there are moments in my life, especially after a breakup, where I felt hopeless, but it ALWAYS got better. Eventually I found others.
3. Take up hobbies, see a therapist, bake. These will help get it out of your mind.
4. I know this sounds silly, but I started to go to church. The amount of love and support I felt was overwhelming, and it really helped me outta a real rough spot. Your milage may vary, though.

I really hope this helps, you got this!

I got curbed by a guy who I hopelessly chased for years. I had a rotten melt down. Turns out that it was the best thing that ever happened to me. I was completely shocked for days. I figured out distraction was the name of the game at first. Moving around. Laughing. Accomplishing things. Doing things to make you proud of yourself. It's one thing to say something nice about yourself, and another to believe it. Show yourself why you're so great. Prove to yourself that you belong in this world, simply because you do. That another person does not supply you with a purpose. Make a point to interact with others. Don't use forced socialization as a punishment. But interact with others in a meaningful way. Connect with someone. The world is full of people with souls that are beautiful. You just have to experience them to see it. Shield your heart, but don't live in fear of it breaking. Because that's how you know that it's there. Anyone going through this, you're gonna be more than alright. Just take it one day at a time. Much loves!

I suppose it would be easy to say "get over it?" but in this case I will say that that differs for everyone. I would like to add that when it comes to breakups the goal is to move on but also not forget about who you are where you stand and why the breakup happened in the first place. Some people feel bad after a breakup, some don't. I would also say that we tend to fall beneath when we break up with someone we loved or liked really bad to where when it happens and you lose that person you felt for that you may find yourself lost but the key is to never forget where you stand and who you are because not all relationships work. Some people take it so hard that it downs them behind the wind of the next balloon but ya know what? You can always find something that make syou happy to avoid a limbo like aftermath. Find friends, talk about it, do things, find peace in your way so you can avoid the worst and get out of your struggles along the way to happiness.
