Dealing with depression after a failed relationship
It is expected that moments of sadness will prevail after a break-up. It is even twice as difficult if it was a relationship that lasted years with special moments shared.
But you can overcome. Below are three tips for getting you back to the place where you can live and love again.
1. Face your mirror
Allow yourself to face the truth about your reality. Accept it! Understand that it doesn’t matter how the relationship ended, but accept the reality that it ended. The first step in healing is first identifying that you have been wounded.
2. Vent
Let out your true feelings. When you cover them and a wear a mask, eventually it will wear you down. Let it out by writing about it, crying about it, or confessing it. A good cry is therapeutic and is actually recommended by many psychologists and counsellors.
3. Start anew
Start by creating a new life. Do things differently by thinking about the positives and letting go of fear totally. It is hard to see any positives when you are actually hurting, but later down the road you will see the real reason or reasons why certain events took place in your life.
