Worst Break Up Stories. What you did to get through.

[garygroundwork]

We all know how painful a break up can be.

Especially if you are the one being dumped or cheated on you truly loved the person etc

Everyone goes through it. It's literally some of the worst suffering you can go through.

What's your stories. What happened, how bad was it for you, what did you do to get through it, how long did it take you to recover etc?

For example I have been through two or three. My first real one was horrible (and I think it is for everyone). I was a mess. I couldn't function and I remember taking a lot of valium and I went to the doctor and got on aropax. I remember the day the day it kicked in. I think I laughed or smiled for the first time. Took a few months for memory for that to work I think.

First one is always hard. It has to be hard when older too I imagine etc. Obviously not for the person dumping or moving on. But the one left fucked.

Anyone else.

Mine was that he sent it at about quarter to three, which meant I still had two more check-ins logged before the end of my shift and a room key that still wouldn't scan on the third floor to deal with... I remember reading it, then putting my phone back in my pocket and going to do those things, and I don't know if that was strength or just my body not knowing what else to do. Probably the second one. The horrible part wasn't the crying, which came later and was at least expected, it was the way I kept functioning fine for eight hours at a time and then would get home at 7 am and just sort of... stop, on the kitchen floor mostly, with Gerald sitting next to me like he was keeping watch.

The valium thing makes complete sense to me, by the way, i'm not going to pretend I navigated it with any particular grace either. There was a lot of driving home in the dark listening to the same four songs on repeat and eating cereal for dinner at whatever hour my body decided it was hungry... I kept waiting for some point where mornings just stopped feeling wrong and I'm still not entirely sure that point arrived, or if I just stopped noticing. I don't know if that counts as getting through it or just getting used to it.
