Confessions of a broken heart



Wikipedia: A broken heart (or heartbreak) is a common metaphor used to describe the intense psychological pain one feels after losing a loved one, through death, divorce, or other means as in breaking up with someone or having your partner move away.



Symptoms:
  • A perceived tightness of the chest, similar to an anxiety attack
  • Stomach ache and/or loss of appetite
  • Partial or complete insomnia
  • Anger
  • Shock
  • Nostalgia
  • Apathy (loss of interest)
  • Feelings of loneliness
  • Feelings of hopelessness and despair
  • Loss of self-respect and/or self-esteem
  • Medical or psychological illness (e.g. depression)
  • Suicidal thoughts (in extreme cases)
  • Nausea
  • Denial
  • Fatigue
  • The thousand-yard stare





The title of this blog entry may be a song sung by Lindsay Lohan, but it is also a feeling that I am going through currently.





What happens when you're in love, when you feel like being with the person forever, when you feel like nothing can go wrong -- but everything just falls down?






  • You wake up with terrible heart ache, the kind that just wont go away.

  • You'll stare at your phone for hours, wondering if he'll leave a message.

  • You stare at the wall, mindlessly, blankly..with no thoughts coming to mind.

  • You'll cry for hours and hours, till your eyes swell to the size of golf balls, and you can cry no more.

  • You'll tell yourself you'll move on, when you know you cant.

  • You'll be hopeful that it will all change, that he will tell you he misses you and wants to get back with you.

  • You'll think it's just a bad dream, and you are waiting to wake up.

  • You'll try to immerse yourself in work, but your attention always goes back to him.

  • You'll feel like a part of your soul has been ripped apart, there is a feeling of emptiness.

  • You're numb.

  • You're lonely.

  • You're sad.

  • You're just not yourself.


How I wish breaking up was easy. For him, as well as for me.



Wait, if I am wishing for something, why not wish we never broke up at all?



I'm trying to move on. It's truly the hardest thing I've ever done. I wish it didn't happen. But it did..



I can't think of what to write anymore. I wish I knew. I wish.

Oh yeah, having a broken heart sucks. Big time. Seems like it'll go on forever.

Take care of yourself though. Pray. It works for me. =)
