"Taking up a new activity will be extremely beneficial. "It would help fill the void," Aanchal remarked.

Digital Desk: Breakups might be difficult, but they don't have to break
you! While you binge-eat ice cream, listen to sad songs on repeat, and cry while
looking at priceless images of good moments with your ex to break out of the
'dukh dard peeda' mindset, it is time to realise that none of this is going to
help! Sure, all of this may temporarily soothe your shattered heart, but
getting over a breakup will require a little more effort.

psychologist and creator of Another Light Counselling, who gave some practical
advice for getting over a breakup to help you get through this difficult

But first and foremost!
"Be aware that you will feel empty, and that is completely normal,"
Aanchal advises. The loss of that important person in your life is likely to
leave you feeling overwhelmed and emotional, and it will take some time for you
to recover. But don't give up and try these suggestions.

"If
you can manage to pick up 2-3 hobbies during the day, it will make you feel

be the ideal choice, but making new acquaintances and meeting new people would
likely help you deal with the breakup, according to the Mumbai-based
psychologist.

"When we are emotionally
overwhelmed (and breakups can be emotionally overwhelming), we are more likely
to overeat or starve ourselves," said Aanchal, adding that the best method
to deal with a breakup is to consume regular meals at regular intervals,
regardless of whether you feel like eating or not. "Keep yourself hydrated
as well," she cautioned.

and anxious." So, regularising our meals and water consumption would
definitely make us feel less overwhelmed," she added.

Sometimes all you need is
a little break to regain clarity and the will to move forward. A trip or taking
time off, according to Aanchal Narang, would help you clear your mind.
"All you need is time apart from another person who has broken your
heart," she added.
FRIENDS TO THE RESCUE
Another key
factor in getting over that person is surrounding yourself with friends who
will listen to you and support you. It is essential to express your emotions
and be surrounded by individuals who care about you. "It would be
difficult to spend too much time alone. Allow yourself some alone time, but not
so much that you feel alienated or as if no one cares about you," Aanchal
said.
