heartbreak to hope:

moving forward after a breakup 

Re-evaluate your needs and wants

While it can be tempting to shut yourself off from the outside world or take out your frustration on others, it’s important to take stock of what you actually want out of life.

Focus on Yourself

It’s important to step back and ask yourself: What do I want out of life right now? Once you’ve identified what you want for yourself, it’s easier to pick up the pieces for moving forward in life.

Make time to do the things you love

You want to make time for activities you enjoy, whether that’s listening to music, reading, writing, drawing, baking, or anything else that makes you feel better.

Build your new life before settling down with someone new

It’s normal to want to feel loved or to be closer to people who matter to you, but rushing into a new relationship can be dangerous. Instead of looking for a partner, take the time to really get to know yourself.

Be honest with yourself and others

It’s important to be honest with yourself about your feelings and what you need. It’s also important to be honest with others about what you need.
