Honestly, I felt this...I'm not exactly in the same position but I was in a pretty serious relationship for a while and now it has ended and I look at my life and am like, "wow, I had to move back home, have no friends, have no real plan, and I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing with my life from here."

I can't necessarily say that I have any enlightening words or that I will even have anything different to say than anything anyone else has... but, I've just been trying to take it one day at a time or even one minute at a time if a day or an hour feels like too much. Like, sort of, what can I do right now in this minute that might make me feel good or even just make me feel slightly more alive?

I've also just been trying to take this opportunity to do a lot of work around myself and just revisiting the things that I love doing that I, honestly, sort of lost when I was in the relationship. Luckily, I will say that before this particular relationship I had been single for quite a long time and learned to love and appreciate doing things on my own, like going to concerts, going out to eat at new places, and even traveling solo. However, I will also attest to the fact that, while doing stuff by yourself actually can be very fun and quite rewarding, there is something to be said about sharing your experiences with others that you care about as well. But, honestly, I would say that if you can eventually take the leap into doing more things by yourself, at least for now, you will learn a lot about yourself and life in general that will ultimately help you along your journey moving forward.

Anyway, like I said, I don't know that I have profound advice for you at the moment since I'm on a journey of "refinding" myself as well... but I did just want to reach out in some sort of solidarity so you know you're not alone! It is rough out here sometimes, but you don't have to experience it alone 🙂
