1. Expression kills depression.
Talk to your loved ones, share as much as you can, and if you don't have anyone talk to yourself, and if you can't even do that, talk to any God in whom you have faith. Writing regularly also helps in expressing.
2. Be busy be happy.
Depression needs time to survive, make yourself busy enough not even to spare any second, depression would cease to exist.
Use internet and entertainment to pass any extra time. (Avoid social media though)
3. 5 am to 7 am cure.
Reserve hundred minutes each morning and spend them systematically, 20 minutes for meditation, 30 minutes broad walking, 20 minutes exercise, 30 minutes breathing exercises (pranayama), nothing can beat this if you adopt to it.
4. Medical treatment sometimes does magic on depression.
Excellent medicines with minimal side effects are available for depression and anxiety.
All you need is to be bold enough to visit a neurologist, or a psychiatrist, if you can't get support from family, book an appointment and go alone.
5. Clear the environment around you.
Stay in cleanliness, eliminate negative people from your life, wear neatly ironed clothes and accessories, don't watch any negative shows, news, and movies.

When you say you don't want to move on, it's often because moving on feels like losing him all over again. But staying in this place is causing you deep depression and making it impossible to focus on your own life.
You have spent a year trying to save a relationship that is no longer there. What if you spent the next month trying to save yourself? You deserve to have your focus and happiness back. You don't have to forget him to move forward; you just have to decide that your life is worth more than a cycle of pain.

Hey thanks for reaching out
What you’re going through is not just a breakup, it’s emotional attachment that hasn’t found closure. A part of you is still holding on to the hope that if he understands, things will feel okay, which is why moving on feels impossible right now. But the reality is, closure cannot come from someone who is not willing to see your side, and waiting for that is what’s keeping you stuck. This is creating a loop of pain, overthinking, and emotional exhaustion, which is now affecting your focus and mood.
Right now the focus is not to force yourself to move on, but to slowly shift from him to yourself. This means accepting that you may not get the understanding you’re seeking and learning to sit with that discomfort without going back into the same loop. Your mind is attached, not weak, and attachment takes time to release when worked on properly.
Take therapy. You can connect with me on nine two six six seven two six zero six five.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. A long-term relationship becomes such a big part of our life and identity that when it ends, it can genuinely feel like losing a part of yourself.
Please know that even after a year, it is completely okay to still feel hurt, stuck, or unable to move on. Healing does not follow a timeline, especially when there are unanswered questions and a deep wish that the other person would understand what you went through.
Sometimes the mind keeps replaying conversations, memories, and ‘what ifs’, and that can become emotionally exhausting, making it difficult to focus on anything else.
What you are feeling is very human, and you do not need to force yourself to ‘move on’ before you are emotionally ready. But since it is now affecting your mood and concentration, it may help to speak to someone who can help you process this pain gently.
With the right therapy, and medications if needed, this phase can become much easier to process. I also provide online consultation and therapy support, and you may consult me directly on nine eight two six five four five six six zero so we can work through this in a safe and structured way.
