There's no way around it: breakups are

heard. It's completely normal to feel sad
and alone, even if you broke things off
yourself. But although you feel
depressed, sad, and alone, you're
allowed to wallow and grieve. Take some
time to miss that person, cry over some
sad quotes, watch a sad movie while
downing your favorite junk food if you
need to. When you're feeling up to it,
talk things through with a trusted friend
or family member.

If none of the above sounds like the right

way to go, consider that this could be a
time of self-reDection or even a fresh
start. You could lessen your rage with a
nice run or a boxing class. Adopt some
daily affirmations, or pick a favorite self-
love quote that could become your new
mantra. You can read some quotes about
happiness and hope that they bring you
joy, too. And you can read these quotes
about the brokenhearted. In time, you'll
feel better. We promise.
