Only those you love can hurt you.
As an individual undergoing a heartbreak experience, you need to learn how to deal with it to regain yourself back because if you don’t, it may end up becoming an emotional pattern and hindrance to you later on in life.
Some proven steps will naturally help you overcome the heartbreak experience.
Below are the 6 practical steps to overcoming heartbreak.
1. ACCEPT THE BREAK-UP:
One of the reasons some people find it hard to overcome the pain of heartbreak is because everything still looks like a dream to them. They never expected the outcome to be what it is.
Accept the fact that the person you love has broken up with you even though it’s painful, that’s the first major step to take to overcome the experience.

I know the relationship was colourful, lovely, and full of wonderful memories but for your own peace of mind, convince yourself that all that beautiful experiences are now in the past. Because if you don’t do that, you will wallow in pain when the other person is probably enjoying his or her life somewhere else.
As long as you keep relating to your past, you can’t move forward emotionally.
3. AVOID BEING ISOLATED:
Naturally, you will want to shut yourself up against the world because every reasonable thing won’t make sense to you at this point, and taking solace in the dark will be the next option to take. But that isn’t a wise decision!
Emotional healing is not in the dark!
Force yourself to move out and be among people who care about you because that’s the best thing to do at this point.
Some years ago, a lady who once lived in my location back then. took her own life because the guy she was in love with called off their wedding plans, and she couldn’t withstand the pains.
One day she isolated herself from the surrounding people, and she hung herself.
One reason you should avoid isolating yourself is nothing may sincerely make sense to you, and suicidal thoughts may creep into your mind.
Do everything you can to avoid being isolated. Take some vacation, travel to spend some time with your family or friends, so they will help distract your mind. Your peace of mind should be paramount to you.

b). Talk To Yourself: I discovered that speaking positive things to yourself helps a lot in situations like this because it helps in repositioning your mind and emotions.
Instead of crying and complaining, move to the mirror, admire how lovely God created you, then speak words of encouragement and healing to yourself.
The more you speak to yourself, the more your ears listen to those words, and the better you become.
c). Avoid an environment that reminds you: Consciously avoid an environment that will make you think of the person always.
Avoid listening to cool songs or blues that will make you think or shed tears.
Back then in the university, a friend of mine was seriously in love with a lady, but along the line, the lady got married to another guy and it broke my guy’s heart, and it affected every part of him.
Every night, my friend will drown himself in one of these cool rock songs and all he was thinking about was this lady.
Blues music is wonderful but at this point of your life, avoid it at all costs even if it’s a gospel song because it may likely drown you in many emotional pains.
5. STOP THE CARE:
Don’t you think showing care at this point will hurt you more?
Don’t you think taking his calls and visiting him will hurt you more?
Don’t you think visiting him will deepen the wound and make it impossible for you to get healed?
During break up, the person who loves and cares more is the one who gets hurt the most, and still the one who finds it hard to let go.
Even when heartbroken, they still want to show some care to the one who broke their heart.
The fact you don’t want to see them get hurt, you unconsciously give them advice even when they’ve begun a new relationship. Such care is excellent, but at this point, it’s a risk to you.
Your communication level with your ex-partner should drop to the minimum with no form of remorse.
You shouldn’t call and to a large extent don’t pick up his or her calls because it will help your recovery.
Put an end to every form of care at this point because showing care to someone who broke your heart will do nothing but deepen the emotional pains in your heart.
You need to preserve the little piece of your heart.
If you continue with such an act, the pain may deepen to where it will become too hard for you to overcome because you will think about that person often, and that’s not good for you. Because you may start experiencing one of the things listed in the 7 things that may happen to you if you hold on to the pains if you continue with the care.
Let go of the person completely by showing no form of care for your own good.
If you don’t stop the care, you may start experiencing some things listed in the 7 things that may happen to you if you hold on to the pain.
