How can you recover from a broken heart?

Answer 1

i have just gone through a heart break, and still want/love the guy, like most other people do. So, im slowly healing, all you need to do is cry to someone you trust and tell how you feel. Friends and family will glue your heart together, and sew all the wounds. Forgeting the person will make the process will make the healing faster, but holding on to what you used to have(like me) will make the process slower. It will take time, but when your heart heals, youll fell way better...and the skies will be bright!! (:
Over time, it will be the same heart with a scar on it. Talking to people is the key, don't try to forget it or hate it because that won't help you in the end. Try to give it a place where you understand what happened and you can live with it. If you need to cry for it, cry. If you need to scream, just scream for a moment.

At the beginning it will be hard and frustrating because mostly you blame yourself or blame the other one. Blaming won't help the situation just admit what happened and slowly try to move on with your live. Talk with people you truly trust to talk over it when you need it.

I wish you the best and may it heal and hopefully embrace once again.

Answer 2

I feel time is the best cure. To speed up the process, try to be very social although it may not feel fun at first. Don't exclude yourself because it will just feel worse. Be adventurous and flirty! Avoid your ex. Hope this helps :) Breakups are tough so if you need anything else, message me.

Answer 3

Use this time to catch up on hobbies and spend time with other friends you were putting on the back burner during your romantic relationship. Keeping yourself busy with work, hobbies, old friends, or making new friends is the best way to keep yourself distracted as the pain eases over time. Consider trying something new - go to open-mic night, jump from an airplane (with a parachute), join MENSA, etc. Anything new might open up a whole new world of possibilities to you that will either speed up the process, or keep your mind busy as the pain takes it's course. WHAT NOT TO DO: Try not to indulge in fattening foods. If you know you are going to want to eat to sooth yourself, fill your fridge with healthy snacks like raw veggies. Stay away from carbs and sugars. They will only make you feel worse. Avoid picking up or worsening bad habits like smoking, drinking, drug use, and risky (and illegal) behaviors. Indulging in behaviors that mask the pain only make it last longer. You are better off using this time to focus on bettering yourself by KICKING a bad habit. Your pride in yourself will make the pain go away MUCH QUICKER. Avoid begging to be taken back or returning to the relationship if it was abusive in any way. You will only lose your self respect and feel just as bad being in the relationship when you know you can do better. Also STEER CLEAR of any relationship that involves excessive addictive behaviors like Alcoholism, drug use or sexual infidelity or deviance. YOU CAN NOT CHANGE A PERSON FROM THESE BEHAVIORS!!! You must leave them first. Only then do you give them the chance to change for themselves. In the mean time, you need to get on with your life and take care of YOU. Avoid rushing into another relationship or having a period of promiscuity to deal with your anger or pain. This only complicates the situation and adds more time to the healing process. Don't beat yourself up over this. You do have the responsibility to learn from this experience so you don't repeat yourself, but explore, grasp it, process it, and get over it. Talk to your friends about the breakup, but don't keep going over and over it and become a "stuck sulker". Your friends will tire of you if you don't seem to get over it and try to move on within a reasonable time. Also DON'T bitch to your friends about your ex if you feel there is any possibility of getting back together. If you do get back together, your well-meaning friends will reject the reunion in an effort to protect you from getting hurt again, and this makes a reunion very difficult. Plus, you can lose friends this way. NEVER get into detail about your failed relationship with your parents, kids or people you just meet. To deal with parents and kids, just give them the facts - "John and are are taking a break" or "I've decided to move on". Do not use your family as the shoulder you need to cry on. Their need to protect you can severely interfere with you making the choices you need to make for your own life. (And if your children are young, it only makes them feel insecure and instable.) As for people you just meet, just put yourself in their shoes. This is the perfect way to stunt any efforts you make in getting on with your life if you are a bore at the dance club or at Karaoke night. DON'T spread angry words about your ex among your mutual friends, on the internet, your MYSPACE, or the town in general. This is a private matter between the two of you, and refusing to gossip will allow you to heal faster.

Answer 6

* Love lost is always painful for the one that is still in love with the person that walked away from the relationship. Losing love is almost like grieving for a loved one who has passed away and it will take time to grieve the loss and move on. First comes the tears; the memories both of you had; blaming yourself and then blaming the ex; then anger may set in when you realize you have no control over another and they hurt you. This is the time when you pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start going out with friends to get back out into society that will enable you to meet that special someone that will be the right person for you and there is that special someone for you. Although it's no consolation to your pain at the present remember that most people experience pain of a lost love.

Answer 7

The easiest so far, if your up for it and can manage, is to find someone else.

But more than that is to preoccupy yourself with other things or people.

But unfortunately its not that easy.. and it varies from person to person.

Some would like to live and go.through the pain to understand and accept what happened, how, why.

And some cam just forget and toss it aside and live like it was nothing the next day.

But whatever your journey or preference is you know you've healed when you arent bitter anymore.

And there is no bitterness if you are filled qith sweetness.

Answer 8

Have a high self asteam and breathe in deeply and exhale. Find your inner strenghth and repeat this. "at least you're hotter than Justin Beiber"

Answer 10
