Breaking up is hard going and surviving a breakup can be even tougher…
Life goes on though, and you can too. Read on for some practical information for surviving a difficult break up.

The basis of a relationship is love and trust. When building blocks are lost, a relationship fades and fails. It’s hard; I know how hard it is! Unfortunately, so many relationships end terribly and surviving a breakup can seem to be an impossible mission.

The first thing to remember is just because your relationship has come to an end it does not mean your life has too. It is so easy to stop living and wallow in self pity. But you are doing yourself no favours! I won’t say snap out of it – because I know how difficult that is too.

There is more than one way to surviving a difficult breakup. Take each day as it comes and try some of these tips:

1. Accept that your relationship has gone.
You need to start moving on and that is unachievable unless you accept that the relationship has finished. You can not turn back the clock. Even if you want to get back together with your ex at some point, it will be a new relationship and not the old one. Acceptance is the first stage to surviving a breakup.

2. Make a plan for each day
There is nothing more difficult than going from days filled with time with your partner to being by yourself. It will take some effort at first to fill your newly found free time and not be thinking what you would be doing if you were still with your ex.

But, it is crucial to surviving a breakup that you do fill that time. Plan your days ahead of time. Renew old hobbies, volunteer to help out charities in your area, socialize, join a class, redecorate – fill up your days with activity.

Have each day planned in ahead of time if possible, it will help to stop you sitting and wallowing in self-pity.

3. Love yourself!
Remember, you are not just “the other half”. You are a person in your own right. Remember how unique and special you are. Love yourself and don’t let yourself go.

Often, after a difficult breakup, many people stop taking care of themselves, neglect how they look and stop eating well. Put yourself first for a while and pamper yourself. Eat healthily; treat yourself to new clothes or a massage – whatever you enjoy.

You will find by taking care of yourself that it helps to keep up your confidence and self esteem. Your self esteem has taken a bit of a bang; give yourself the space and opportunity to pull back.

4. Accept help
Your friends and family will be concerned about you. Don’t push them away. Accept their help and company. Take the time too, to meet up with old friends that you may have neglected during your relationship. Surround yourself with people who do care about you, they will be a big help in surviving a difficult breakup.

5. Let go
When you feel up to it, finally say goodbye to that former relationship. Get rid of any of your exes things that you may still have. Sometimes, it helps to see obvious ending to get closure. Hold a “breakup party” and celebrate being single again.

Surviving a Breakup isn’t always trouble-free. You will have difficult times. Don’t be tempted to sit and feel sorry for yourself.
