Finally found the man I thought I would marry, but the breakup came out of nowhere and I’m struggling to cope. What are the ways you’ve dealt with heartbreak in the past?

    As others have said, keep yourself busy or distracted. Try and release the stress you feel through exercise. Avoid using food/alcohol/drugs to cope, as they can easily turn into a crutch and then an addiction.

    Talk to a friend or therapist about it! It took me over six months before I really started processing my divorce.

    Remember that you are an amazing person. Have love and compassion for yourself. Be patient with yourself.

    The actual hurt hurt only seems to lessen with time.
