    After nearly 2 years, the first person I've ever loved has broken up with me, and I'm devastated.. It's been a terrible night and I've been waking up every other hour from nightmares and panic attacks.. I don't know how to overcome this and I'm not sure how to process it.. Everything just seemed to be going well then BAM, it was over..

    I feel like you're the past version of me... like 6 months behind.

    Its going to hurt and its going to be a very slow process of healing. You're going to go through a whole roller coaster of emotions, some days will be better than others for sure. This is a great time to figure out who your real friends are and to even make some new ones, its also a good time for change, take up a new hobby. Do something you've always wanted to do, something different.

    Just remember that while things seem terrible right now, they're going to get better. I can promise you, it'll get better. You're going to learn to cope. You just need time to heal. Take a step back and assess the whole picture.

    You're going to be okay.

    Yeah, I completely broke when my partner broke up with me. That, and they were also my best friend, so it was even harder. I stayed depressed for nearly a month afterwards. What you have to do is spread your foundations. Don't let your life center around one person. Make more friends, and make sure you can count on them.
