    Hello everyone. Recently I have undergone a pretty upsetting breakup, I was broken up with and ever since that things have gone completely downhill, I have been subject to humiliation, depression, lack of appetite, lack of sleep, yanno…the usual. I am not at all perfect, I have made my fair share of mistakes but I feel really betrayed as she has already started seeing someone else after 2 weeks and it happened just before summer, so I feel pretty alone right now, I feel as though ill spend 7 long weeks alone. I have read a lot about finding yourself and how you wont truly be happy or find love until you love yourself and I completely understand that, however I am not 100% on how to find myself. I know this is probably rally cliché but I am here because I simply have no where else to turn to. My family and friends are great but they don’t quite understand what I am going through and they tend to put off the subject as they believe that I will just heal with time, which is right I guess but I need to know how to begin the healing process and how to find happiness within myself…thanks for any replies 🙂

    Hello, well done for seeing this heart ache as an opportunity for self-growth. Breakups are tough they hurt, they make us ruminate about the past, our ego suffers, all the sad feelings you feel are normal but won’t last forever. It’s during these moments that I’ve learnt most about myself, my needs and wants and realise that happiness is only really something we can find within ourselves. While I don’t recommend dwelling on the past but maybe some reflection on why it didn’t work out will help you to let go more easily? To do this it may require learning more about yourself, do you have a hobby that you love? Do you have a project to keep you busy? Are you into travelling? Seeing new places is a great way to expand the soul. Meditation is really a good way to tune in to your inner desires and find internal peace. It does take time to heal but you will heal exactly when you have learnt/done what you have to if that makes sense. Good luck on your journey!

    pandpeach – It is incredibly uplifting to know that there are complete strangers out there who care and are willing to help. Thank you very much for your wonderful advice! I shall certainly take it into account 🙂 yeah, my initial aim here is the try and find myself through this, I have done things I swore I never would, so maybe its time to relax, take a step back. I am constantly looking for someone to make me happy, but I am losing myself in the process! I think my plan of attack is to just relax, I am only 17, I need to stop desperately looking for love and enjoy being young and free, love will come in time, once I know who I am! Thanks again – all the best!:D

    Hi Jon,

    You know sometimes we need to trust ourselves that the universe will help work everything we need out, as long as you trust yourself and stay positive. I’m gay and very confident that things all work themselves out. For example there is this girl that’s a few years younger than me and we’ve been working together for over a year. She went with me to Hawaii which was a great test of our relationship in all aspects. We got along so perfectly and have so much in common but here’s the monkey wrench – She said she wanted to have an open relationship with me while we were in Hawaii together and asked how I felt about it.

    Most people would probably be upset but I wasn’t because she was honest, communicative and I told her that I don’t do open relationships. I don’t like to share my women lol. The awesome thing is that her and I are still great friends, although she may be a little disappointed but at least we still have a great solid friendship. I am already happy with myself and my life because I never had any expectations to begin with. I’m completely happy with the way things are regardless and have a very positive outlook on my future ahead because I know great things are in store for me. 🙂

    Relationships eventually work themselves out, whether it’s a friendship or romantic relationship. So right now is a good time for you to reflect and stay positive. Be grateful for all the wonderful things in your life, for what you have and things to come. Personal goals, we have to remember that we need to put them into action no matter what it may be. We are only in control of ourselves, our happiness, relationships we want to have and our futures.

    Happiness begins with Y.O.U. always (((Hugs)))

    I send you bunch of positivity, love & light.

    Namaste,

    E.
