Counselor response

Glad you are reaching out to talk about this. Break ups are tough and sharing about them can make it hurt a bit less.

During this time, it is important to focus on your own needs. Letting your emotions out is a good start. Tonight, try to take care of yourself. Watch a favorite movie, eat a favorite snack, or take a hot shower before bed.

Give yourself some time to heal. When you feel up to reading and/or journaling, take time to look at our tips and tools: Break-Ups. Pay special attention to the end of the first tip. It gives 10 important things to remember during a breakup.

It is a painful time, we understand, and we will be here for you as you work through the feelings you are having. If you want to talk about this, call us 1-800-448-3000 or text us TEXT VOICE to 20121. 

You can get through this. We can help.
