Why am i struggling more after my breakup?

Author

I’ve been trying to get back on track but honestly it’s been getting more difficult instead of easier. I’m back to crying all the way home every day. I’m so on edge and triggered all the time. I feel like everybody has a negative agenda and is out to hurt me.

i had a stretch where i thought i was getting better, then suddenly i was crying every day again and felt like i’d gone backwards.

when you’re this on edge, do you have anyone you trust enough to tell them how bad it’s been getting?

getting to the point where every little thing felt like a threat and i couldn’t make it through a car ride without crying. it’s exhausting when your brain just won’t let you feel safe.

I’m really sorry you’re going through this. Please don’t be too hard on yourself. The fact that you’re still trying to get back on track, even when it feels harder than before, says so much about your strength. You don’t have to have everything figured out right now, and it’s okay to take things one day, or even one moment, at a time. Be gentle with yourself. I know it may not feel like it right now, but this difficult season won’t last forever. Keep going, even if your version of ‘going’ today is simply getting through the day. You’re doing better than you think.
