Coping with break up depression is a difficult task but rest assured time heals all wounds.
I know you are looking for instant relief and if you follow my tips below you will be healed and back on your feet in no time.
I find people coping with break up depression always want to get their ex back.
9 out of 10 times it is for the wrong reasons.
When dealing with a break up people become disconnected with reality.
Many times the comfort and security of being with someone blinds people from the problems within their relationship.
I suggest that all people having trouble dealing with their break up, stop for a second and have an honest moment with themselves.
Take this time to answer the hard questions.
Are you truly still IN LOVE with your ex or are you afraid to be alone? Does your heart hurt or is your ego bruised? Is your ex with someone else now and are you just trying to steal them back out of revenge? Were you happy with the state of your relationship one week prior to the actual break up? After a break up people have trouble dealing with reality and truth and can't see that the real answers to these questions would be evidence that this break up is for the best.

Do not contact your ex! This is an emotional time for you.
You are not in a rational state of mind.
Contacting your ex will only do two things, increase your heartache and chances of saying some you will regret.
So take some time to be alone.
This is time for you to cry and reflect.
Crying is a good thing.
Swallow your pride and let it out.
I promise you will feel better.
Crying helps with coping with break up depression.
Next, get rid of all pictures, memorabilia, and clothing that you share with your ex.
You need to create an environment that can allow you to think with a clear head.
So get a box, fill it up with all of their stuff and give it to a friend.
A key to coping with break up depression is to keep them out of sight.
Remember the cliche out of sight, out of mind.
It works.
Get out of the house! Staying at home listening to depressing alt rock or romantic comedy marathons will not help you when dealing with a break up.
Social interaction and the support of friends is the ticket.
Keep your mind preoccupied.
Do something you've wanted to do but didn't.
Maybe your ex didn't like outdoor excursions but you did.
Take advantage of this opportunity and go for a hike or bike ride.
Maybe they didn't like scary movies and you did.
Go rent the Texas Chain Saw Massacre.
Whatever your differences were exploit them.
Breakups are easier to deal with when you keep yourself busy.
Meet new people.
I don't recommend doing this immediately but when some time has passed.
Meet new people, make new friends, flirt.
If you are attracted to someone in the slightest bit then go on a date.
It is healthy.
Dating and meeting new people will boost your self esteem which is helpful when dealing with a break up.
I do not recommend immediately going on a date but when some time has passed go for it! When coping with break up depression remember this.
Life is not over.
Break ups happen.
This is an opportunity to get out of a dead romance and start a new.
There are 7 billion people in this world.
Just think of the possibilities.
