i just broke up with my girlfriend. i already asked her to move out of our apartment and now she’s staying with her sister but honestly the silence since then has been destroying me.
for the last 6 months we spent almost every single day together. suddenly all of those routines conversations little moments they’re just gone overnight and i feel completely lost without them.
i don’t even think i miss the relationship itself anymore after everything she did to hurt me. i know deep down i don’t want us back together. but being alone like this feels unbearable.
i can’t sleep. every time i try to put my phone down and close my eyes i panic. my chest gets tight i feel short of breath and i immediately grab my phone again just to distract myself from the silence.
i keep feeling this desperate need to call someone so i don’t feel alone but at the same time i don’t even know who to reach out to.
that’s the part i don’t understand. why do i become like this every time a relationship ends? i genuinely feel restless 24/7 and i don’t know how to calm myself down anymore.
i know heartbreak hurts but this feels deeper than that somehow and honestly it’s scaring me a little.

sitting in my apartment after my breakup feeling like the walls were TOO quiet. i didn’t even want my ex back anymore either, i just couldn’t handle how empty everything suddenly felt after building my whole routine around another person.
when you say this happens every time a relationship ends, do you think it’s more about losing the person or losing the feeling of always having someone there with you?
have the same issue with panicking and getting short of breath when falling asleep. Its a real bitch. I didnt sleep at all last night. But Im hoping I can tonight, I am exhausted.
Hang in there, hopefully it gets better for us.
Breakups are really hard. I’m the same way. since my breakup and I’m finally feeling better. Time and taking it one day at a time is all you need. Being alone and sitting in the discomfort is a part of the process. It’s so hard. Focus on you.
