have you been able to talk to anyone about how heavy this feels? sometimes just naming it out loud eases the weight a bit.
i remember with my ex husband, i was miserable for a long time but i woke up one day and just decided i was ok. still waiting on that day this time around though..
I'm exactly like you.. but when I think and imagine him eating and laughing in my absence, I get very angry with myself and order food immediately..
Healing isn't linear. I still starve myself. I still don't have the appetite. 67 days post break up and I am still a mess
Progress isn't linear. I personally am a big eater normally but I'm hardly eating myself. I end up planning meals and making sure I hit at least 1200 calories with apps for myself so I'm not making my body any worse. I would also look into antidepressants. They take the edge off after your body gets used to them.
try to just take small steps—eat one proper meal, rest even a little, and break your tasks into tiny pieces. it won’t fix everything instantly, but it helps you survive the storm.
i’ve been there. after my breakup i also spiral barely eating and losing focus. it’s not weakness, heartbreak can hit in waves. you’re allowed to feel this ❤️
Hi, some days are heavier than others. There are days I'd wake up energized and at peace and I would think this is it but no. Even at over 100 days I still experience sadness and emptiness
