Just some friendly suggestions in this hard time:
DON'T hate yourself
GiphyDon't go saying things didn't go right because of your appearance, or that you weren't attentive enough, or maybe you could have done this or that. That is too much weight to put on your shoulders. Love yourself, and know that you are always enough. ALWAYS!
DON'T search for someone else
GiphyYou need to be alone. Finding someone else too soon, will lead to immediate comparisons, and things just won't feel right. Give yourself time, then find someone else. But, don't go searching.
DON'T talk about it on social media
GiphyIt is no one else's business but your own and to those who are close to you. Bashing them on social media is just wrong and doesn't make the problem go away. If anything, you will be painting yourself in a bad light.
DON'T get rid of everything they ever gave you
GiphyItems usually have sentimental value if we let them. It's okay to get rid of some stuff, but don't go throwing out items you love. Over time, that attachment will fade. Put it away in a box for a while, and come back to it later. Maybe and most likely, you will have changed your mind and will be grateful you didn't throw anything out.
DON'T erase every memory you have of them from your phone
GiphyMemories are memories. You will regret deleting things if you do it too soon. Maybe you think it'll help you move on, but these rash decisions will maybe add to your guilt and hurt later.
DO take time alone
GiphyAlone time is also key. Don't push people away, but being alone is part of the journey in finding your new self.
Do surround yourself with friends and family
GiphyDo not push people away. Let them be there for you. Even if you want to be alone, it is healthy to let your friends and family bring back some balance into your life.
DO exercise or put efforts into another outlet (keep busy)
GiphyKeeping busy is really #1. Give yourself purpose and realize that you were never truly dependent on that person because you were one badass human before them. Exercising helps you feel good about yourself, is good for mental health, and has its benefits to the outside too! Get fit! Show them what they lost (wink wink).
DO stay away from the urge to contact them
GiphyLEAVE IT BE. It's over. Accept that. Move on. Leave the past in the past, no matter how much it hurts. It is probably for the best, which you will only realize months later. Your mind is not in the right state to think properly.
DO focus on yourself
GiphyAfter this, you will probably find yourself having a lot of extra time and realize you feel pretty lost. Where do you go from here? The important thing is not that you know, but that you try to move on and really focus on who you will grow into. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right? Yes.
Do take care of your health
GiphyMaybe don't eat that pint of ice cream or eat an entire bag of Doritos? While it sounds nice at the moment, it will make you feel gross and even worse in addition to your current situation. Also, do not refrain from eating. Make sure you have a nice healthy balance in your diet.
DO listen to AS MUCH MUSIC as possible
GiphyMusic is therapy. It is okay to sing along to sad songs and let out your emotions. It's nice to know you're not alone.
DO allow yourself to cry and express your feelings
GiphyDon't hold in your emotions. In the end, it will just make matters worse and it will prevent you from moving on.
