Whether it may have been by a friend, a crush, a boyfriend
or even a spouse, we’ve all have gotten our heart broken at least once. We have
all experienced the epidemic disease characterized by long nights of crying and
lonesome days wondering what we could’ve done differently. People call it
“heartbreak disease”.
The pathology of this disease has been widely studied, yet
it seems like we haven’t discover a way to eradicate it. There might not be a cure for heartbreak disease, but there are
some remedies I’ve collected through time that would certainly help on
relieving the symptoms on what may actually be a “psychological disorder”. We
forget, we move on, and it’s gone.
I, just like you, have gotten my heart broken more than one time. It was not
easy, but no matter how excruciating the pain, and how intense the symptoms may
be, time does make it better.
Here is a list of things that have helped me.
1 1. Surround yourself with fun, positive and caring
friends. You need a good crowd for those times when you feel like crying, or need to talk to someone.
2 2. Perform some type of exercise, it will make you
feel so much better as when you run, your body releases endorphins. These
chemicals trigger a positive feeling in the body by interacting with some
receptors in the brain which as a result lower your perception of pain, and
make you feel positive and have a better outlook on life.
3 3. No matter the negative thoughts you get
about the person that broke your heart, DO NOT express them. Not saying them
will be hard at first but soon it will become a habit and at some point they
will be gone.
4 4. Remember there is nothing wrong with you. There
are billions of people in this world and each and every one of us has something
unique to offer. If that person couldn’t appreciate you then they are
not worth your time.
5 5. Take time to pamper yourself! Now you have more
time to enjoy!
6 6. Go out with your friends; socialize!
Alcohol is never the answer but mingling with others is!
Don’t ostracize yourself!
7 7. Something that has particularly helped me is energizing and motivating others. Be the change you want to see in the world. Be positive, support those around you, and motivate them by
example. If you have nothing to say, sometimes
just being supportive of your friends and reminding them how great they
actually are will help them. They will be happy and that in return will make you happy!
8 8. Most importantly, no matter how sad you may
feel, don’t get lost!
People like me, that may be dealing with temporary or chronic depression,
anxiety, fatigue, stress among other things are more inclined to be negative,
lose motivation, and lose traits of their unique personality. Try to find
yourself; it is an ongoing process. Everyday, tell yourself who you are and why
you are so valuable.
Life is beautiful; so don’t waste time being sad!
I hope this helps you!
