AlwaysConflicted Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 I'm 6 or 7 weeks post breakup. Received the offical "I don't love you anymore" last Tuesday so now I'm in coping mode. My mood swings are insane. This morning I was crying and now everything in the world is making me angry. I just took xanax to relax my nerves. Oh and my laptop died this morning. A nice cherry on the top of my "life is horrible" milkshake. Sh*t I need to get my act together. Any words of inspiration? A quote perhaps?
HurtZ Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 How about, you aren't alone, because you truly aren't. I feel the same way. I've been through breakups before, and now I'm facing the rejection of a man who I ultimately thought would at least date me seriously after 8 years of talking online. Be glad you found out sooner than later. Take support in your family. Realize your own worth, and own it. Make a plan where you want to be 2 years from now and then focus on the things to do to achieve those goals. That is what I'm trying to do..I wish it wasn't so lonely though. It's a hard road, but the only way out is through the pain. Good Luck 2 you.
hurt and devastated Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 It's not going to be an easy road by any means, but you really need to try and move forward. It's been a little over a week since I moved out, and the hurt is unbearable. My father in law (yes, him and her stepmom are being really helpful) finally convinced me I need to see someone, so I found a divorce/separation support group that meets at a local church. You might try checking around and seeing what's avaliable. I feel for you buddy, it's not a fun place to be.
spriggig Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 Wait til you start planning your suicide in detail. Maybe you won't but I did. It's past now, but that was a rough week and it came a full six months after D-day and a really good May. WTF? Seriously W.T.F.!? Then, strangely, I've been in a pretty good mood these past two days, in spite of losing not one but two dogs last week, one right after the other. I look normal on the outside, but inside? I don't know, it's really weird and changes constantly. But, it HAS gotten better. Really, May was pretty good. Forewarned is forearmed. Hang in there, time heals all wounds. Now, bunnies: :bunny:
monkeymaid Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 hey there. ...those ups and downs are really just part of all of this. i too have had the worst week of this whole mess. but today looked up! tomorrows forcast is also sunny when the moments hit, let them come and listen to your body while you go through your emotion. quite your mind and just feel it out. breathe DEEP andlisten to what your body is literally telling you. the tightness, the sadness, the heat in your face, the tears on your cheeks. let it all come as it will and you just sit back and watch it. when the feelings have subsided, wash your face, and take another big DEEp breathe and feel the difference between when you are feeling and when you are done feeling. then go about what you were doing because, congratulations, you just felt something and let it pass right through you. sprigg, sorry bout the detailed suicide thing, im glad it passed. ...here are more bunnies:bunny::bunny::bunny:
LoveTruthChaos Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 Here's my favourite quote: "Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's NOT THE END". Best of luck!
GrayClouds Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 . Any words of inspiration? A quote perhaps? When life gives you lemons, make lemonade... Not so good. How about this first god give you a tap on the shoulder, if you do not listen he give you a push in the back, then if you do not listen, he give you a kick in the a$$. Your getting your a$$ kicked right now, so what should you be doing? Give me three things you can do starting tomorrow that will help your not doing now. .

smk Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 My mood swings are insane. This morning I was crying and now everything in the world is making me angry. I just took xanax to relax my nerves. I know that feeling - its been 17 days since the unofficial break up - and 1 day since the official break up. My moods swings are aboslutely insane, sadness one minute, numbness the next, anger the next, irritability the next and its a vicious cycle that goes round. I was in a meeting earlier this afternoon and at one point I could literally imagine myself picking up the laptop in the middle of the desk and bashing everyone with it because they just would not shut the F*CK up - that then lead to me having an axiety attack where I started sweating like a freaking pig - thankfully the meeting ended 10 mins at which point I literally got my cigarettes and ran out of the building to get some air. I then spent the next hour walking around aimlessly working up anger towards her for not standing up and fighting for our love - at which point the sadness set in again. And then just when I feel that I am regaining some composure guess what - it starts all over again. To top it off I have been surviving on 3 hours of sleep and finally only managed to get some sleeping pills from my doctor. I told her about the anxiety attacks and she blatantly said that I was reacting really badly to the break up. Hell I cant even get any Xanax to deal with this crap... On the bright side though I have been running like a mad person (I used to run and had stopped for a while) and have signed up to do a half marathon in 4 months time so the training for that should keep my evening occupied....
