Getting Over a Breakup (midwest.social)

How have you successfully gotten over a breakup? I did not end the relationship and it was the most significant of my life. I feel confused and trying to understand why. I'm not sleeping well and my anxiety has decided to resurface. I'm ruminating. I don't have many people to go to about this. Please don't say I will find someone else, because I can't go there right now. And I know it won't happen anyway.

I have. But it took literal years, I think about 3 or 4 years to completely get over it.

That's a very long time.

But you come out the other end a stronger person than you were before.

I think so too.

I've had past experiences with this type of stuff. It gets easier over time, with time being key.
