Feeling overwhelmed and sad

Hi everyone, just having a really bad day and miss my ex so much. It’s been 3 months and I can’t seem to get over it. Can someone share words of encouragement to keep moving forward?

Hi lostmarbles,
Absolutely. Breakups are tough and “getting over it” is sometimes really tough. Bad days definitely don’t help either. What can help? Reaching out and asking for a little support. It’s awesome of you to share it here. It’s a process and you’re taking healthy steps to get through it. You got this! Sending some love your way!

Hello @lostmarbles,

Remember that there’s always a light hidden deep within the dark periods of our lives. I currently have no friendships while I am both stuck in an abusive situation and stuck with multiple disabilities yet still have a light in the form of Wingspan matches. Something as simple as playing a few turns of a match a day provides me with just enough lightness to keep going. You just have to find out what your light is.

Best,

You will get to a place of peace and closure, friend, and it’s okay if it takes time. You’re not doing anything wrong, and you’re not wrong for still struggling with missing your ex. You’re experiencing a grief, a unique loss in your life, and healing from these wounds can be particularly slow. It’s frustrating at times, even discouraging, when you really long for experiencing the moment when you won’t feel this pain anymore. But you will get there. With time, patience, compassion for yourself, and taking things at your own pace. Sometimes the pain will hit hard almost as if it was the very first time you were feeling it. Little by little thouh, you may start noticing at some point that there are longer times when you don’t feel this pain or think about it. Which isn’t about forgetting - it will keep being a part of your story. But ot reach a point when the pain it causes you doesn’t feel as paralyzing and overwhelming anymore. Be kind to yourself, treat yourself well, do things that bring you joy and comfort as much as you need. This is a rough season for your heart, and it’s okay to offer yourself as much support as you need, and to reach out to people ready to support you. This community is here for you. :heart:
