I’m sorry that you’re having such a rough time getting over the break up. Since you wrote in your pre-posting questionnaire, that you’re both 22 and this is a 5 year relationship, it sounds like it’s probably your first serious relationship as well. That makes it more important and a little more difficult to move past. Unfortunately, there’s no short cut for getting through this tough situation — break ups are painful and they take time to heal. But if you focus on what is good in your life and stay busy, seeing friends and family and focusing on school, work, volunteer work and other worthy parts of life, the break up will be less painless. Try not to let yourself get down too often — and if you feel you are, call a friend or family member to talk to and go to a movie with or to go for a walk in the park. Staying busy and keeping those who care about you, close, is the best thing you can do until you start to feel like the relationship is part of your past.
I hope that helps and that you feel better soon.
