How to Sustain Heartbreak

• Let it Out - The best way to make you feel less worse (if not better!), is by letting out the steam. Cry, moan, grumble, scream, whatever it takes to let out the stress and pain. Believe me, you'll feel a lot better after you let go off those harsh feelings instead of clinging onto it.
• Accept Reality - You have to come in terms with reality. Your worst fears have come true. You are single. It hurts, but it is better to accept the reality of life rather than living in a make believe world, thinking that time is going to turn back. It will only make it more difficult for you to accept this fact, as time goes on.
• Divert Yourself - Get a pet, develop a new hobby, learn a new language, do anything that diverts your attention and makes you happy. Cook your favorite dish and have it all by yourself. Visit old age homes, spend some quality time with the elderly and make them smile. Many people have benefited from the idea of bringing home a pet. Adopt a stray pup or take one home from the animal shelter. If you can't keep a pet, grow a flowering plant. Take care of it and nurture it like a baby. It is a great stress buster.
• Time for Friends - Gather all your close friends and throw a small party at your place. If not a party, call them over for lunch or a sleepover. Spend time with them and talk about what is hurting you. You will be surprised to see their support for you. Hire a comedy movie and watch it together. Laugh your heart out and by the end of the day, you will realize that life isn't so bad after all!
• Pamper Yourself - It always helps to look good and pamper yourself. Go to your nearest salon, get a new hairdo, a good relaxing aroma massage and step out fully rejuvenated. You will not only look good, but feel good too.
