Break Up's
The feelings of being empty, hurt, lonely, and angry are just the tip of the emotional iceberg that a person goes through after a breakup. It leaves a broken person with a bruised self-image in its wake. A heartbreak is the loss of not only a partner, but also an imagined future, certainty, and a piece of ourselves.
Moving on is difficult, and one can experience a wide range of difficult feelings, complicated thoughts, and obsessive behaviour patterns, all of which can have an impact on one’s productivity at work, the quality of one’s relationships with friends and family, and one’s self-esteem and self-image.”
Instant and quick fixes may help us to distract ourselves or numb the pain for a short time, but they do not address the emptiness and hurt we feel.

MISHAPS
When it comes to recovering from a breakup, there are a few things to keep in mind: Drinking, smoking, drugs, rebound relationships, casual sex, binge eating, rash driving, and overworking are some of the short-term relief measures that people use during this time.
It is unrealistic to expect a relationship that has lasted many years to be forgotten in a short period of time. When you come across a familiar place, person, or object, it’s natural to feel triggered. It takes time for associations to fade away.
Some people confuse emotional numbness with healing. It may seem better to not feel anything at all, and it may even provide temporary relief from the burden of pain, but it only delays healing.
THERAPEUTIC STRATEGIC APPROACH
When a person experiences something as traumatic as a breakup, they may become emotionally overwhelmed and need to vent their feelings, which may not always be possible with friends and family.
A breakup is not only the end of a relationship, but also the beginning of an imagined future. It is necessary to grieve the loss of a dream in order to reclaim hope and joy.
When we lose a relationship, we are forced to consider how our few actions, or even my entire being, could have prevented this fateful event from occurring, and I would not have had to go through this painful event in my life. If we believe this, we unwittingly or knowingly enter a vicious cycle of self-blame or self-criticism.
Many people find themselves asking, “Why did this happen to me?” Wasn’t the love genuine? Wasn’t the relationship strong enough to withstand adversity? Integrating the knowledge and lessons learned from this experience aids in achieving clarity and makes sense when presenting a comprehensive picture.
A breakup is accompanied by an emotional roller coaster in which a person experiences shock, anger, betrayal, numbness, rebounds, and other emotions. Knowing that this is normal and that one can have contradictory emotions at the same time helps to alleviate the pain and move forward with acceptance and Insight.
When we become accustomed to someone’s presence in our daily lives, it can be difficult and perplexing to imagine our days without them. We may end up feeling lost and lonely. The final step in the healing process is to rebuild our sense of self without this person.
