Literally feel like I'm drowning today!! It hurts more today than any other day I spent my whole lunch break crying because I have to pretend I'm fine during the work day. I'm so scared this won't ever go away I don't wanna live a life like this just need encouragement

My experience has been it gets worse before it gets better. It WILL get better. Just hold onto that hope.

I cried for 4 months after he left and i was Doing
all my support groups and therapist. It was a bad
time. TRY embracing it as cleansing When you can
safely. A lot of healing happens In grieving. You can
face your feelings and emotions And let them go.

After i stopped crying all the time I would get a build
up that if i could have had a deep crying Jag i would felt
better. HUGS

I still ride the rollercoaster so its not quick or
Easy. Go to therapy if you are not, keep reaching
Out to good healthy loving supportive people the
Other kind only bring you lower. HUGS

I agree with Mirandac...crying is a good release.

Distract your self when you can clean,walk,run,.it takes time but does get better .start recognizing your triggers and stop yourself over thinking the details.I'm 8 months split now still working on myself but getting easier .someday s I'm scared and excited for the future. Make some nice plans for you.This is your time to heal.

The two week mark was the worse for me. I was actually about to ask him to come home, but as fate would have it, another ugly piece was revealed. Just know that it will get easier. Time will mend your heart and your soul. Exercise really does help clear your head—I suggest doing something physical. And, don't knock yourself for crying. Be patient with yourself.

Hugs.

Although I'm not much of a crier, I probably had low grade depression for 2 years, while I was contemplating leaving. Things got better for me once I started to be proactive and take control over my life. It WILL get better, the time frame differs for everyone. Just keep plugging away at rebuilding your life, eventually you'll have more sunnier days than stormy ones.
