Surviving a Breakup – 7 Tips That Will Make You Happier Than Ever

 

No matter how harsh this may sound, unfortunately, breakups are a natural part of everyone’s life. Many studies have shown that going through a breakup has a similar effect as withdrawing from any form of addiction, activating the areas of the brain associated with cravings, motivation, etc.

And all these things can cause both serious physical and emotional pain and frequently people feel like the suffering will never end. But no matter how gloomy things may appear to be now, remember, that it will get better in time.

In order to speed up this burdening process, you need to take a few steps that will help you recover a lot faster. Today we will put together a list of things that must be done that will help you get back on your feet.

Smart Ways To Get Over A Breakup

Unfollow Him Or Her On All Social Media

Do not expect your ex to start posting emotional posts like “I miss you”, “Let’s get back together”, “I’m broken” or anything else that’s heartbreaking. That’s not going to happen. Your ex has probably moved on, which means that it’s time for you to do the same.

There’s no point in being friends with your former partner, even on social media. What do you expect to see? How happy or sad he/she is without you? These things shouldn’t bother you anymore. 

Keeping him or her friend on any social network is like ripping your heart from your chest, handing it over, and telling your ex to cut it to pieces. You don’t wanna do that. Instead, unfollow your former partner and pretend as if he/she has never existed. Yes, it’s going to be hard at first, but you’ll survive.

Allow Yourself To Feel Your Emotions 

What does it mean? It means that each day, you must give yourself around twenty to thirty minutes to feel every single emotion without any judgment. Sam at getherbackguide.com suggests writing down all your thoughts concerning the breakup on a paper that your ex will never read. Of course, you can also speak your feelings out loud if that’s more convenient for you.

Once those twenty/thirty minutes are over, ask yourself: “What am I supposed to do next?”, “Do I need to turn to someone who actually loves me?” “Is this the right time to pamper myself by doing the things I enjoy?”.

Once you ask yourself these questions, your intuition will tell you exactly what you need to do. These are the small steps that will positively affect your current emotional state.

Try Out These Strategies Below

Openly Discuss How You Feel

You shouldn’t be going through something like this alone, particularly, if you’re surrounded by people who actually care about you, such as your friends and/or family members. Therefore, it would be advisable to openly discuss your feelings with them.

Namely, this is going to drastically alleviate the pain you are feeling right now. Do this whenever you feel comfortable. It doesn’t have to be all the time, but just make sure not to hold all your negative feelings in.

Of course, when you’re at work or surrounded by people with whom you’re not close, then act as normal as possible. Through this process of opening up, you will uncover that your feelings are completely normal and that others have experienced them as well. 

Whatever you decide to do, just ensure not to isolate yourself from others, especially from the ones who are very supportive.

Keep Yourself Busy

Although you may feel like you do not have the strength to do anything, bear in mind, that every single task, no matter how small it may be, is actually extremely helpful in these types of situations.

That’s why, as soon as you wake up and eat your breakfast, focus on planning your day. There are so many things that can be done, starting from grocery shopping, cleaning your house, or even going to the movie.

It doesn’t matter what you’re going to do, as long as you keep your body and mind busy. The only thing that you should avoid is sitting in your room, staring at one spot and/or contemplating. These activities are not going to speed up the recovery process, but will actually do the opposite.

Delete, Delete, Delete

We’ve previously talked about social media networks and how essential it is to unfollow your ex, but if you want to heal even faster, then it would be advisable to completely eliminate anything that’s related to them from your cell phone.

What does it mean? It means that you should no longer keep their pictures, videos, and more importantly, messages on your mobile phone. Even though this is going to be very hard because all these things are little reminders of how the two of you used to be happy together, having any of this stuff on your phone will only make things more difficult when it comes to getting over your ex.

Except Every Social Invitation

At first, you might feel like you’re not capable of leaving your house and communicating with anyone, particularly people you’re not comfortable with, but the truth is, if you decide to accept every single social invitation you receive, you will quickly realize that it is one of the best decisions you’ve made.

If you allow yourself to enjoy, relax and simply have fun, you will see how these things can be extremely liberating. 

Renovate Your Bedroom

Now is the perfect time to spruce up your bedroom, meaning, that you should go on a shopping spree to purchase brand new sheets and why not even some lovely scented candles. Just make sure to first get rid of every item that’s in your bedroom that reminds you of your former partner.

Once you remove all these things, you will remind yourself that you actually haven’t lost anything.

A vast majority of people think that going through a breakup means that their whole world is falling apart. Although that’s completely acceptable, if you implement some of these tips, you will soon realize that life truly goes on and that the best is yet to come.
