Break Up Survival Information: The Top 5 Things to Do To Get Over Your Ex

1. Get Your Feelings Out in The Open: The Number One thing to do if you just broke up with your ex; whether you are the one that broke up or the one that got dumped, is to find someone you can lean on and talk to as soon as possible. A best friend, a family member or even a pet will do. Don't be afraid to be open and discuss how you feel to this person. If you keep all those break up emotions bottled up, they are bound to explode later down the line. Get all the crying, bitching and talking about your ex and the break up out of your system; it is part of the healing process. If you don`t have a supportive and trustworthy friend or family member to discuss your break up with, another healing process is to write down your feelings in your diary or in a notebook. Writing, like talking, helps to sort out your feelings of anger, betrayal and disbelief.

2. Pamper and Amuse Yourself: Distract yourself from the breakup while being gentle and kind to yourself. Whether it`s a favorite hobby, a movie, a music concert, a sports game, exercise, or a spa day, treating yourself to special occasions will help you have something to look forward to and will help repair the damage that a breakup can reek on a person`s soul. Whatever your release, make sure it's positive and not a depressant like alcohol or drugs, you`ll feel even worst when you come down from your buzz. Treat yourself with patience, understanding and kindness and you will recover much quicker from a painful break up.

3. Release Your Anger: It is not healthy to keep anger bottled up inside. Take a kickboxing class, go to the gym or go jogging. Exercise will divert your attention away from your ex and help your body shape up at the same time. Make a list of all the things that pissed you off about your ex. Write him a letter or make him a video telling him off but don`t mail or give him the video. Burn the letter of video along with any gift, photo or letter that he gave to you. This symbolic gesture will give you a sense of closure and allow you to start the healing process. If there are any other reminders of him in your house or apartment, round them up and put them in a bag for a friend to take back to him or for you to throw out with the trash.

4. Avoid All Contact With The Ex: It is normal yet unhealthy to seek information about your ex and his/her new life without you. You probably will have the urge to get news about him from mutual friends This doesn't help the break up or recovery process. Focus on yourself instead for the proper healing you deserve. Constant reminders of your ex only extends the torment. Don`t become a hermit while avoiding him, just do your best to avoid meeting up with him/her and try to isolate yourself from getting any information about him/her until you get used to your new life away from your ex.

5. Move On With Your Life: To get over a break up, you need to try and move on with your life. After allowing yourself at least a week or two for a proper grieving process including crying, bitching and releasing your anger, it`s time to refocus on your own life.The more you focus on your own life and develop your own friends and activities, the easier and quicker it will be to get over your ex. Do you have to erase him from your thoughts completely? Of course not, but avoid the obsessive thinking about your ex. If after a couple of months, you realize you are still in love with your ex, and are still clinging to the hope that you will get back together, you will want to first test him/her to see if your ex is still interested and you . If you get back together, great; but if not, you should be prepared to continue moving forward with your life.
