I have a decently okay stack of books that women have given to me to read after I had been dumped suddenly. I let them sit there for a month but I think I'm going to power through them since I need something to do. All I'm doing is sitting here feeling sorry for myself. What are some books that helped you get through a breakup and on your feet again?

Wikipedia lol. Psych articles. Self Improvement books.

 

I haven't read anything in particular that has helped me get over my break up but some of it has helped me to get my mind off the breakup for chunks at a time.

 

I find the more intellectual something is the more focused you are on processing it which gives your brain less of a chance to feel any emotions. Opposed to if I were to read a good story with lots of imagery and feelings my mind just wanders to some distant memory I thought was previously forgotten.
