mymission Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 I'm alright for a few days and then I have a really big cry and am hysterical. Then once thats over after an hour or 2, I'm fine for a few days again. But in them 2 hours I feel so horrible. But maybe thats just what I need to do to get it out of my system for a few days. I'm fine at work, people there were saying how smiley I am all the time. Because he gets blocked out when I'm at work. But I'm getting more hours now which I'm glad about because I am a smiley person. And I want to be more often. And maybe I will be outside of work soon.
Philosoraptor Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 You're grieving, it's a good thing. Accept that you will hurt some, but don't let it run your life. If you're happy at times then just know that as you let this work its way out of your system, the sad times will fade away.
SilverBlueAndGold Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 Yea it's not as cut and dried as "I'm over it, oh well carry on!" We get hit with emotions and have down times. Good days and bad. Heck sometimes it fluctuates back and forth within an hour. Time....the bad news is there is nothing we can do to speed it up. The good news is there is nothing we can do to stop it either! So eventually it will happen.

I look at this as you making progress . I bet when the breakup was fresh your periods of pain lasted a lot longer than 2 hours at a time, right? You're heading in the right direction
Fufu Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 It is normal to feel this way. I had this sort of emotional rollercoaster in the past
Confusedcompletely Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 When this happens to me I feel really good. Obviously it sucks having it all hit you every few days, but I feel like it's a signal to me that it's only going to get better from here. The last time I broke up with someone I journalled my feelings...and I was getting mad because I was going a day...two days and then feeling horrible. Then I noticed two days turned into three...until I would forget to journal and then would realise it's been a good part of a week before it would hit me again. I think within a few weeks of seeing my feelings go into a pattern I was pretty much good! I was still getting hit with it but not so intense...so it was easier to get through it. I'm hoping it's a good sign for you too! Good luck!
