The process of breakup recovery can feel overwhelming at times.
However, with a little bit of guidance you can make the process less painful and possibly save your relationship.
Most people have no idea what to do in a situation like this, and as a result prolong their heartache much longer than necessary.
You have more personal power to influence your situation than you realize...
you just need to be shown what to do.
First of all, accept the fact that you're going to experience a certain amount of emotional pain during this time of breakup recovery.
Acceptance is the first step towards feeling better today.
The more you fight these uncomfortable feelings, the stronger they become...
what you resist, persists.
Acceptance of your situation is the first step towards getting you out of the overwhelming state of panic and fear of loss that you're experiencing.
Getting out of panic mode will help you get your head clear so you can make better decisions about what to do next.
Once you've started to calm down, you need to evaluate where you stand in this relationship.
Do you want to move on or would you like to get back together? If salvaging the relationship is what you want, then you must learn exactly what to do and when to do it.
Otherwise you'll end up making the same mistakes most people make and push your ex farther away.
You must avoid any kind of desperate behavior if you want to win back your ex.
That's why getting out of panic mode is so important...
it causes you to act in ways you normally wouldn't.
Pressuring your ex to get back together and bothering them all the time only makes the situation worse.
Take a break from contacting your ex for a couple weeks.
Use this time to work on yourself, spend time with family and friends, stay busy doing activities that make you happy, etc.
This break will allow your ex to miss you and you'll be building up your inner strength.
The process of breakup recovery will be less painful and you'll have a stronger chance of a reunion if you take this approach.
