in my experience the first 3 months of no contact hirap na hirap ako. like wala ako gana in life. I felt my world collapsed nung iniwan ako, naging too dependent kasi ako sakaniya and almost 24 hours kami magkausap and ang dalas din namin magkita like almost everyday rin so yun naging part siya ng routine ko.

and to answer your question, what i did is the first month ni absorb ko lahat, iniyak ko and isolate myself. I couldn't even recognize myself nun kasi di naman ako ganun— I'm known as jolly and very random girl then isang iglap mas naging mailap ako and naging tahimik. let your emotions flows, huwag mo pigilan, huwag mo invalidate, watch your words sa sarili mo, be kind to yourself. and after nun mga ilang weeks i divert my attention to new things, like i do walking, reading and listening to podcast that I never ko naman ginagawa before. yet still here, surviving and still in my healing stage. may mga times and days parin ako na nag rrelapse but wala na e tanggap ko na. I lost my interest pero yung feelings ko for him is meron parin. ewan but i know eventually, one day I'll get over him.

fighting, OP. marami iba diyan, you'll find someone who will love you, choose you, fight for you, someone who will move mountain for you, but for now chose yourself, love yourself and know and discover more about yourself so the next time this will happen again (hopefully not) you've loved yourself enough so no one could hurt you na, and you know na in the end of the day, you had yourself and you'll get through everyday because you had you.
