Steps For Surviving A Break Up

Surviving a break up is a painful experience. You may feel rejected. You may be doubting your own self worth. You may not feel like getting out of bed in the morning. One thing that may help you is to know that most people have already gone about the process of surviving a break up and have come out stronger for it.

Here are some of the steps for surviving a break up.

First of all, allow yourself to mourn the end of the relationship. Your ex was almost like an appendage to you. You identified him or her as a part of you. You were two halves of a couple. Just as you would be lost if your right arm was cut off, losing a significant other can be painful.

So, spend some time grieving for the relationship’s end. It can actually be a healthy thing to do.

But at some point (hopefully soon), you have to move on. You will need to go through a process of being angry at your ex. He or she hurt you and you have every right to feel mad at them.

Here’s a tip for surviving a break up in the anger stage. Write a long letter to your ex spilling out your guts about how you feel. Put every emotion, experience, and feeling into the letter. But don’t mail it to them. Whatever you do, don’t mail it. Instead, light a candle and burn it slowly over the flame. As your letter goes up in smoke, release your anger.

At this point, it is time to start rebuilding your life. Surviving a break up means getting back into the game. You should definitely lean on the support of friends and family during this difficult time. The people closest to you will understand that you are having trouble putting your life back together and they should offer you the support that you need to heal.



Also, you should look for activities that spark your interest. Perhaps there were things that your ex didn’t like to do with you that you’ve missed. Renew your interest in these things. If you have had a lifelong desire to learn something, there’s no time like after a break up to try. You will probably make new friends when you start a new activity and you might even meet a love interest who shares your passion.

At some point, you will want to start dating again. Don’t expect your first few dates to turn into lifetime relationships. Just test the waters. Go out for coffee or a drink. Have fun and don’t be too serious about these things.

Surviving a break up is always a painful process. But, you are capable of moving on with your life. Look at the end of the relationship as a chance for growth. Millions of people have survived a split with their ex and you will too.
