It is never easy when a marriage or significant relationship ends. Whatever the reason for the split—and whether you wanted it or not—the breakup of a relationship can turn one's whole world upside down and trigger all sorts of painful and negative feelings. But there are plenty of things one can do to get through this difficult time and move on. One can even learn from the experience and grow into a stronger, wiser person. You may give emotional support to your friend as a good friend and encourage her to seek professional help. She can consult me online for guidance.

Dear mam I can imagine your friend must be quite distressed. It may take a few months for her to get over it. However, if she is feeling sad all the time, cries often, has lost interest in things that she liked earlier, feels hopeless, had thoughts of harming herself, has disturbed sleep and appetite..these are signs that she is clinically depression and need professional help. As her friend, you can help by being there for her, talking to her, reassuring get and encouraging her to see a psychiatrist. Thanks Regards Dr Ankita Mishra

Hello Friend, Good that you are seeking a help here. Any relationship break up will take time to accept the failure and adjust with reality. She must be going through the transition of this phase. It's quite possible to have such feelings and behaviors during this period. More and more she try to forget the past or the Ex, the memories or will keep increasing. That's the common mistake. We can't erase or forget past thoughts, we can only ignore or divert the thoughts,else she will get into unnecessary depression. Instead she need to accept the failure and start focusing on other priorities in life. I know it's easier said than done. If require d, she can take a relationship counseling help to find the ways to cope with failure and how to move ahead slowly in career or in another relationship without any guilt. There are many general advice available, but what's important to her is a patient ear to listen and helping hand to get her out. Appreciate, you are doing this to some extent. Be positive. She will be alright soon. Feel free to reach me online for further assistance to overcome this episode.

Hello, It usually take weeks or few month to get adjusted.  If the sadness prevails even after that then you need to consult a neuropsychiatric center. If along with sadness you are having loss of interest in previous pleasurable activity, feeling lonely, change in appetite and sleep, low in energy, confidence, hopeless, helpless, worthless feeling and sometime even suicidal ideas. Then you might have depression. Few of these symptoms or all can be present at a time.
Next Steps
Consult nearby psychiatric clinic or you can consult me.
Health Tips
