That’s very hard, I’ve been there as well. There’s nothing as painful as seeing someone you loved so much move on with someone else. Please be kind to yourself, and know that this really will get better each day. I have been separated from my ex almost 3 years now, I loved him so much and it’s still hard to this day, but so much easier to manage now. I think often times, those are normal responses to grieving your past, I wouldn’t beat yourself up too much over this.

I know how that feels and nothing is wrong with you. You just miss her. I got dumbed badly in January 2021 and I never felt so bad after a separation. I felt so much emotional pain, I thought my body would not be able to bear it. I'd cry for hours on end and when I didn't, anything could make me cry. I felt no connection to anyone, friend or family, had been worth something in comparison to the love I felt for my ex. But nearly 1.5 years later, I don't miss him at all anymore, I'm only still angry how disrespectfully and rude he dumped me and has treated me afterwards. I know it doesn't feel like it at the moment, but it will get better...

I’m so sorry. Breakups hurt so much. Give yourself time to grieve. I found that writing a letter to my ex (but not sending it) helped me. Also, if you can’t stop looking at pics of your ex, maybe at least try to wait a little but when you have the urge to look. I found that helpful too. Sending a hug!

I did voice recordings and said eveything I wanted to say and then deleted them. I did a lot of them to start with, but at someone point, I didn't feel the need anymore.

My ex best friend started dating my ex boyfriend. And me and the boy are in the same church so this is awkward. My heart is broken, not because he’s with someone else but the fact that it’s with her. I look back at every moment the three of us spent together and just wondering if they liked each other when me and him were together. I’ve lost all self respect, I keep stalking them on social media and I’m so mad at myself because I know that I’m letting them hurt me more but I can’t help it. I also still have my ex bsf location and I checked it today and saw that she was at my ex bf’s little brother’s baseball game, this hurt because me and him used to do that together, also me and his family are still close because of church so I have a soft spot in my heart for his little brother. I just feel like my whole world is upside down, I’m so confused. I’m trying so hard not to resent them, I try and remind myself that they are still God’s children. But I still find myself full of bitterness. I’ve been processing everything for about a month and I have tried tons of things to heal: put all of the items he gave me in a box, go to a rage room, visit the temple, journal, pray. Each of these things have helped a ton, but I still have a lot of pain. I know that this is all part of God’s plan but it’s still painful, I just need to remember that this pain is temporary and will help me grow as a person. I just wanted to share this and maybe get some advice on how to heal from a broken heart. I know this isn’t really OCD related but I just really needed to share this.

I was broken up with 3 weeks ago and things are just getting worse. I feel like I’m wasting away and like nothing will get better. What’s worse is knowing that if I get out of this episode my ocd will strike back and I’m scared I won’t be able to deal with it. It’s like every part of me can’t accept this break up. I’ve reached out to people but I really would love to hear stories from anyone who thought they wouldn’t make it out
