5 Tips to cope up with Breakup Depression

5 Rules to Overcome Painful Breakup

If I look a few months back, I find myself locked in a dark room, lying in bed with my face stuck in a wet pillow squeezed in my arms. The tears were continuously raining out of my eyes wiping out all the dreams in which I imagined my future with my boyfriend. A sudden breakup after a long relationship of two years makes me feel like a truck passed over me leaving few breaths just to plead for death.

The life became this rude to me, that the death even seemed peaceful. I started digging the pit to fall deep into depression and after I went a long way into it, I decided to kneel down in front of him to ask him to come back. But the day I met him, I got a huge shock, He already has a girlfriend!!! What! I mean how’s it possible? And I was crying for months to lose such a person, who doesn’t even deserve a word with me.

That’s it! On that very day I decided to bring life back in me, and created these 5 rules to get myself out of depression.

1. Express your feelings

After break up feelings are like knife the deeper you keep them, the deeper you will get hurt. So, find a friend or a family member who ever you feel comfortable to share your feelings. If you don’t find yourself comfortable with anyone or want to keep it personal, then write a dairy to express yourself. But, just let your heart out.

2. Hide away memories

No matter how hard you try to overcome, memories will always sprinkle salt into your wounds. So, whether it’s a picture, a gift or anything that makes you remind of your ex just keep them away out of your reach. Once, you find a way out of depression, those kept memories would no longer bother you.

3. Remember time heels

Getting out of depression after breakup isn’t easy, no matter how much time and efforts you have put to cope up with it, a single thought of that person can drain everything out on rain. And this will not even happen once or twice but most of the times, all you can do is to have patience, and believe that time will heal everything.

4. Do something new

Engaging yourself in something new will involve a lot of new stuffs to enter your life, giving you less time to think about breakup. Studies even prove that the less you will think about the reason behind your depression, the less depressed you will be. Therefore always try to engage yourself in some activity to avoid all those thoughts

5. Do yoga and meditation

Psychological traumas are very common after breakups. You go through a lot of emotions after breakup creating mental imbalance causing depression. Yoga and meditations are the best way to bring back the mental peace. They are even helpful in improving your sleep, taking you out of those sleepless nights that you spent in tears.

Trust me! these rules will surely help you to cope up with breakup depression, but before this you must have to accept that it’s over. Always remember depression is just a powerful energy inside you wasted on the wrong direction, use that energy in right direction to rebuild yourself, instead of destroying yourself by getting depressed.
