any advice on getting over heartbreak?

With my abysmal luck with relationships, so much so it's a miracle if I can make one last a month, I too know this feeling all too well. My advice is be kind to yourself, take the time to do things you enjoy, spend quality time with friends who can help you feel better and just focus on yourself and do whatever that helps to make you happy! Just don't dwell on the what ifs and look to the future and you'll be just fine :D

I normally dive into a project (baking, crocheting, an anime that I know will take time to binge, art, etc). Helps to take your mind off things so maybe you can deal with them when you’re more emotionally ready

It takes time to recover from a broken hear(speaking from experience) so accept those sad feelings it is the only way to get stronger. But dont fall into the pit of no return there is no use to feel pity for yourself. Write about your emotions, talk to your friends. And dont forget to watch anime, i recommend 5 centimeter per second if you can handle the slow passing. The girl that went through time. Golden time A Lull in the Sea Be strong Even thou it is tough now, there is a light at the end of tunnel if you are brave enough to walk all the way through the darkness.

Yeah, watch anime, go outside, sit under a tree, listen to the colors of the wind. For real, make a fire outside and tell your story to the fire. Also, exercise and stretching/ yoga will do wonders helping your mental/physical health. The thing you gotta concentrate on is improving your emotional health.

thanks everyone for all the responses. i appreciate you guys taking the time to type out your advice for me. it means a lot :)

Distance yourself, and give yourself time. There is nothing you can do that will make the situation any better after a recent breakup. You just have to endure and take it one day at a time. Giving yourself time, you will find the strength to move forward. You need to be patient with yourself while making an effort to move forward bit by bit. Take care of your emotional and personal needs as you're getting through this. Never look back regardless of whether or not the breakup could have been prevented. There's no point in looking back at what went wrong. Once someone is gone, they're gone. Feelings can and will change over time for better or worse but at times it can appear to happen out of the blue and so suddenly. In these situations you can't really know what was going through someone else's mind or even make sense out of your own feelings. You just have to come to terms with things at your own pace. Your inner strength will come to you, but it has a hard time reaching you when you are filled with self doubt. When your mind is a raging storm, and your heart sunk so deep into the abyss... One can imagine that rescue boats would have a hard time reaching you but once the storm clears finally... They will find you, your inner strength will find you. Stay strong
