Coming out of a relationship is difficult. You may feel helpless, hopeless and unlovable. You feel sad and angry for most of the time which is concerning and needs to be addressed. It is difficult but you can overcome these feelings.
You can share with someone close to you about your problems, maybe a friend you trust. It may help to speak your heart out to someone you trust to ventilate the pent up feelings.
If you want to move on from your previous relationship then it would be good to bring a closure to that relation by writing down your feelings about it.
Meanwhile, you could write down your feelings and thoughts in a journal everyday for at least 30 minutes. It will be difficult initially but after 4-5 days you will begin to feel better.
Steps to write a journal to vent out your emotions:
1. Open up your notebook (or begin a document on your computer).
2. When the timer starts, begin writing about your emotional experiences from the past week, month and year.
3. Donât worry about punctuation, sloppiness or coherence.
4. Simply go wherever your mind takes you, curiously and without judgment.
5. Write just for yourself, and not for some eventual reader.
6. Do this for a few days.
7. Then, close the document without saving it, or throw the paper away, it doesnât matter.
8. The point is that those thoughts are now out of you and on the page.
9. You have begun the process of âstepping outâ from your experience to gain perspective on it.
Next Steps
Consult a clinical psychologist to get a detailed evaluation done to work on the problem from the root cause.
