Hey there! I understand that you have been going through a lot lately. I hear you. Anxiety, breakup and stress are difficult to deal with but not impossible. Let me tell you that you have done a great thing by reaching out for help. This is your first step in the right direction. The best thing to do to manage your concern better is to consult a Psychologist. A mental health professional will be able to guide you to manage your concerns better and help you take steps to cope with your concerns better. However in the meanwhile, here are some steps you could take to help yourself deal with anxiety, stress and the breakup:
Work on regaining your self esteem - It is normal to question your self esteem and worth when an important person in your life has parted ways. So it is important to remind yourself that your confidence and esteem hasnât gone anywhere just yet!
Visit atleast one new place a week - Whether it is a cafe that you havenât visited or a brand new book store, make it a point to visit a new place every week. You can even call your friends. The goal here is to break routines and habits that were formed earlier.
Avoid rebound relationships- It is common for some people to get into rebound relationships as soon as they break up, and this is an unhealthy practise. Making impulsive decisions when you already have enough emotions to deal with after the heartbreak, jumping headfirst into another relationship is the last thing you should do. This is mostly just a mechanism to not have to deal with the pain and loneliness from the heart break!
Reach out to friends and family for support - We all need support through times of struggle. Support from our loved ones will help us feel loved, cared for and also help feel a sense of belongingness and security.
Eat healthy, exercise and practise mindfulness. However busy your schedule is make time to have healthy meals, exercise for at least half an hour a day and practise at least ten minutes of mindfulness. These little things make a huge difference and it will help you stay positive.
Practise Mindfulness - Even practising ten to fifteen minutes of mindfulness a day has positive effects on your mental health. It will help you reduce stress and manage stressful situations better.
Stay Strong, donât give up!
