5 Ways to Deal With a Break Up

Breakups blow chunks. Whether it’s an amicable breakup or a horrible, crash-and-burn situation, you’ve invested a part of you into another person and must accept that a relationship that you once nurtured is dead and gone. Brain-mapping studies have shown that the same regions of the brain are activated when an addict is going through withdrawals as when someone is going through a breakup. Here are 5 ways on how to deal with a break up.

Happy Sunday everyone and sorry for not replying to everyone's comment lately. But we've been reading them and slowly adding more topics to our list of videos. Break ups was requested a while back and now we have it completed. Hope it helps for those who are going this!

When i was a kid i always thought people were over reacting. Now I get it.

[pepino]

It’s hard to lose someone you thought was gonna be with you forever

[kylerbands]

The thing with me is I can’t wrap my mind around how one day you and that person have your whole life planned out together then one day y’all break up and never speak again that’s what hurts the most

[PsychoticSalamander]

it was the chillest break up ever but it still hurts. so much.

[jessaa]

it’s so hard to let go of someone you talk to everyday, hang out with multiple times a week, someone you loved and cared about so deeply. I wish this pain on nobody, not even my worst enemy.

[dieforalina]

When he was your only friend and now you've got nobody to talk to about it as well :(

[londonwendeesberg]

heartbreak is really no joke, i thought people exaggerated but now that i’m going through it. it’s so so hard.

[KHAMMIE]

It’s hard to let go of the same person you planned a future with and talked to every day

[Distructors]

Dealing with a breakup up and having no one to talk to is so hard :(

[nateweber]

I miss cuddling with them, I miss waking up next to them and being so happy and feeling so safe snuggled up to them. That’s what I miss the most.

The problem with waiting for my heart to heal and not texting her is that 2 months seemed like a whole year in suffering.

[feeto]

It hurts even more when you both still love each other but just can't be together because of personal problems...

[annagremaud]

It hurts when you’re still friends because you still want them in your life and you want them to be happy but you don’t want to watch them fall in love with someone else

[SaraVanlinthout]

You ever experienced that moment when you can’t breath after a breakup?

Well so am I...
Hugs x

"I love you so much!"
"Together forever!"
"I wanna marry you one day and we'll have our own family and children!"
"I wanna grow old with you"
"I promise I'll accept the worst and ugliest sides of you"
"I'll never get tired of you"
"You're the only man/woman that I'll love for the rest of my life!"
"I can't live without you"
"You are my everything"

Boom.. what happened to those promises.. It seems like everything went to trash.. You just disappeared in a blink of an eye

I went from "how to kiss" to "how to deal with a break up"😭😭😭

[rickryan]

Bro, my gf for 7 years broke up with me in the nicest way possible, what's even worse is that the fact that we broke up not because somebody cheated, it's just, the love just ain't there anymore. This lockdown made it even worse.

I just got dumped from a 1 year relationship last night and I never experienced anything more painful than this.

Notes for myself
1.- Experience it: Don't fulfill with something else, learn to be alone and to feel
2.- Focus on yourself: Respect yourself, your feelings, emotions, and your energy.
3.- Try new things: Reinvent yourself
4.- Reach out to family and friends
5.- Move on: Evaluate new options
