​The end of a relationship can be painful especially if it was a bad breakup.  We’ve all been there, your mind is completely bombarded with thoughts of them, you go back and forth between the good and bad times, you think about calling them or may even stalk their social media.

5. MIGHT WANT TO PUT THE HENNY & BACKWOODS DOWN
​
Evaluate your current habits. How much have you been drinking or smoking lately? I’m not judging here. I will say that excessive drinking and smoking are coping mechanisms.

LET’S GO!!!!!
 
Whether you are ending things with a long-term partner, situationship, or sneaky link, the time immediately after you let that shit go can be both exciting and painful. Don’t get me wrong, the relief that comes with removing someone toxic from your life is an amazing feeling. 

​From my experience, nighttime seems to be when the mask falls off. The strength that would carry me through the day finally leaves. And I found myself sitting with my thoughts. During this time, you may become engrossed in how much you miss them, how much you just want to see them and lay next to them. After breakups, I dreamt about placing my head on their chest and drifting carelessly to sleep. 

​I know what it is like to wake up in the middle of the night and feel as if the weight of the world is pushing down on your chest so hard that you are unable to breathe. I know what it feels like to lay upon pillows soaked with tears and filled with screams. The countless hours praying that a forgetful sleep would remember your name and call to you gently and place all of your worries to rest. The worries that seemed to haunt you night after night.
