Getting Over a Breakup

Redpandalovely @midwest.social to Asklemmy@lemmy.ml – 108 points –

How have you successfully gotten over a breakup? I did not end the relationship and it was the most significant of my life. I feel confused and trying to understand why. I'm not sleeping well and my anxiety has decided to resurface. I'm ruminating. I don't have many people to go to about this. Please don't say I will find someone else, because I can't go there right now. And I know it won't happen anyway.

I have. But it took literal years, I think about 3 or 4 years to completely get over it.

For sure, same here. Maybe longer. Looking back it was for the best that things ended, but boy did it suck at the time.

That's a very long time.

It can be. But also don't be hard on yourself if it does take a while. It's okay if it does. It's also not as intense for as long.

Maybe a therapist would be helpful as somebody you can vent to and help you through it.
