earthfireuk Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Every single morning, I wake up with the such an empty, lost feeling inside my stomach... for me it's the most painful time of the day. Does anyone else feel that? It still hurts during the day but i find its worst first thing in the morning. I just wish I could roll over in bed and see her laying there sleeping again, looking perfect.

Hey, I know exactly how you feel. For me it's both nights before going to bed and as soon as I wake up. For the last few weeks I have been waking up in the middle of the night too - from the few hours of sleep I am managing to snatch each night. Before I lived with her we used to text each night and I would send the last one, and since she normally woke up pretty early I always had a text msg waiting for me - I still wake up and the first thing I do is look at my phone hoping to see that text - but it hasnt been there for 18 days now. Its the worst feeling in this world, its this emptiness in your core, like life no longer has a purpose, makes me question what I am even doing here, why do I even want to wake up... I know exactly how you feel and I wish I could just make that feeling go away.
BiAxident Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Yep, I also know exactly how you feel. I was here posting right up until 3am, and then I woke up about an hour ago and here I am! Night is the easiest time for me to deal with the pain, because at least then I know that sleep, however brief, is right around the corner. I should say though, that I've felt this way in the mornings off and on for a LONG time. If I have a reason to get up in the morning, then I'll get up no problem and go do whatever. If I dont have a reason? I would just assume sleep until the point that I do. It used to be really bad; if I didnt have to be to work until 1pm, I wouldnt get out of bed until noon. I think the worst part is simply not knowing how you are going to fill your day, other than thinking obsessively about whatever it is that is bothering you at that moment.

When my ex and I first broke up, I used to think it was really strange and would get scared that when I woke up I felt horrible and panic stricken, every day, without fail. In time that should get better or go away. I think part of it is that in the morning we are the most vulnerable to our feelings and subconscious. Now it happens VERY rarely, if at all.
