Heartbreak, it sucks.

There is no other way to put it, besides that it just really sucks.
With heartbreak, the idea of being okay one day seems nonexistent.
I have been there, I know.
The only thing you want to do?
Sit in your room, car, a safe place you have, and just cry.
I am not going to tell you not to cry, yo by all means do that.
In fact, I encourage it.
Cry it all out.
Youre hurting and theres nothing wrong with that.
Youre going to reminisce.
Youre going to think about the memories.
Youre going to think about that person.
I know you dont want to because it hurts, but sometimes your mind is going to go there.
Sit down and take a couple deep breaths.
Take a moment, acknowledge it, and move on.
You cant live your life in the past.
You cant live your life through memories.
Youre going to be okay.
I know it may not feel like it right now, but you will be.
As cliche as it sounds, time heals all wounds.
Give yourself time to heal.
I know you want instant results because this pain feels unbearable, but nothing worth having comes easy.
One day you wont be sad over this person.
One day you wont cry anymore for this person.
One day they wont matter anymore.
Pick yourself back up when youre ready and rediscover who you are.
You were someone before them, and you are going to be someone after them.
You would be surprised to learn that you are capable of so much.
I know it doesnt feel fair.
It doesnt feel fair that youre hurting and theyre moving on with their lives.
Throw that idea out the window.
Throw the whole person out the window.
Focus on yourself, your pain, and ultimately feeling better.
Dont continue to give them power over you, they are no longer your concern.
Letting go, its not easy.
Especially not with the strong presence of social media.
So many platforms, so many ways to hurt yourself.
For some its easier, for others its more difficult to unfollow, block, delete, etc.
Take baby steps if it’s crucial that you.
Start with deleting their pictures and videos off your phone.
If thats too much, hide them on your phone.
Next is social media.
Youre hurting, the last thing you want to see is their snapchat story, instagram post, tweet.
Whatever it may be, if its going to hurt you, unfollow/block.
A social media break also doesnt hurt.
Now letting them go.
This is probably the hardest part.
The memories wont let you, but overall you wont let yourself let them go.
Deep down inside, you still have hope that they will come back.
If it wasnt now, maybe it can work later.
Dont do this to yourself.
Put yourself first, and everything else will fall into place.
Now let reality set in.
Reality may have always been there, and maybe you were ignoring it.
I have also done that.
Then again, maybe it was just as great as you thought and it just didnt work out.
Your heart is going to go through a lot, take care of it.
