How do emotionally strong people deal with breakups/divorce?

Hey there, I understand that going through a breakup or a divorce can be incredibly tough, and I'm here to offer some guidance on how emotionally strong people deal with such challenging situations. Speaking from my own experiences, I remember a time when I went through a heart-wrenching breakup that left me feeling shattered and lost. But over time, I discovered a few key strategies that helped me navigate the emotional rollercoaster and emerge stronger than ever.

First and foremost, it's essential to acknowledge your emotions and allow yourself to grieve. Breakups and divorces are often accompanied by a flood of emotions, ranging from sadness and anger to confusion and loneliness. Emotionally strong individuals give themselves permission to feel these emotions without judgment. It's okay to cry, to scream, and to let it all out. In fact, embracing these emotions can be cathartic and ultimately aid in the healing process.

Secondly, building a support network is crucial. Surround yourself with people who genuinely care about you and your well-being. Whether it's close friends, family members, or even a therapist, having a support system can provide a safe space to share your feelings and receive much-needed comfort and guidance. Don't hesitate to lean on them during this challenging time.

Lastly, focus on self-care and personal growth. Engaging in activities that bring you joy and fulfillment can help in the healing process. Invest time in hobbies, exercise regularly, nourish your body with healthy food, and practice self-compassion. Emotional strength stems from taking care of yourself and learning from the experience. Remember, this is a transformative phase that can lead to newfound resilience and self-discovery.

In summary, emotionally strong individuals tackle breakups and divorces by allowing themselves to feel their emotions, seeking support from loved ones, and prioritizing self-care. While the healing process may take time, it's important to remember that you have the strength within you to navigate through this challenging period. Stay strong, be kind to yourself, and embrace the journey of growth and healing. You're not alone in this, and brighter days are ahead!

Hello fellow Tumblr travellers! Any people with grandmal epilepsy try to use tea or old folk medicine in desperation?

I've been using green tea for years up until 2013. Started convulsing out of control the more I drank the green tea. They told me I developed an allergy to it.

I tried this mint Melody tea containing spearmint, peppermint, and rose hips. It's pleasant unfortunately there's nothing for my epilepsy.

Recently this year I learned from a Google search basil has anti-convulsive abilities.

This is going to sound crazy but the basil works.

Lying around for days now

I am falling again

Into the abyss of her dark eyes

She's sleeping on the couch

Next to the dusty photo frame

Artefact of what we used to be

I notice the lightening

those veins make on her eyelids

Hours long of crying summed up

This is new

Oh how much I wish I could make her pain go away

Her hand is helplessly held in the air

So thin now

I pull the comforter over it

Her lips pale than before

mouth is half open

Oh how much I wish to kiss away her grief

I sit next to her

Her chest sinking and swelling

I match the rythm

The only thing we can do together

I trace the curves of her fingers

She twitches

I retreat

Afraid

I'll make her miserable than she already is

Her eyes flutter slowly

A tear rolls down

And I could've rubbed it off

I could've

But I dont

I could've.

Almost they say.

~S

//To Live in your blood and soothe

the heartache you've been carrying around

Feels like good timing to share my new batch of art babies!✍️✨This first piece is about feeling like everything you touch is falling apart & crumbling. (Which perhaps you might also relate to right now?)⚡️As an action it was surprisingly hard to illustrate this idea in a single static image, but I did my best to also imbed it with enough beauty that it (hopefully) wouldn't feel too heavy with hopelessness... Enjoy!🙏 . . . #art #illustration #collage #gouache #gouachegirl #lauraleegulledge #drawitout #arttherapy #crumbling #breakingdown #tryingtostaypositive #holdingontohope #resiliency #dealingwithchange #changesarehard https://www.instagram.com/p/B9pcyniF2Zd/?igshid=10v8b7la8u32h

Just breathe. I’m reminded of how much has happened and how far I have come, as life has its funny way of smacking me in the face with reminders. #ptsd #depression #fightingthegoodfight #neverquit #holdingontohope #letmylightshine #faith #grattitude #overwhelmed #toughcookie #selflove #mytime #barbiesgoodies (at Las Vegas, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2KF7OGnhdxKZ9kb2n1jC-J0igkKXjg-bXVZwc0/?igshid=kmvd0zoqd1o8

A beautiful night filled with cotton candy clouds and a stunning pink rainbow. Mother Nature is reminding me to breath during these really hard times. She is showing me her light through the storm and telling me to hold on to hope. #Montana #montanabeauty #montanamoment #distinctlymontana #bestofbasecamp #montanaskies #bigskycountry #bigskybeauty #treasurestate #cloudsofinstagram #clouds #cloudstagram #cottoncandy #cottoncandysky #cottoncandyclouds #rainbows #rainbowsofinstagram #rainbowsofhope #holdingontohope #mothernature #naturebringspeace #natureheals #remembertobreathe #sendingallthelove https://www.instagram.com/p/CfYK8rnLeB1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Day 7 of “Oppression” series: “Holding onto Hope” (1-4), gouache paintings. Our actions to help the black community and POC should not end after these protests. It is our responsibility as white people to humble ourselves to make ourselves aware and educate ourselves of racism, in ourselves (even if it’s unconscious), racism in our towns, states, country, jobs, wages, doctors offices, housing, restaurants, voting booths, policing, our daily walks, anywhere. Open our eyes to change! Good change, positive change! Change that raises value in Black Lives, value in their worth, dignity to their humanity, and respect and love for who they are! Black Lives Matter! Hold on to hope everyone. Change is coming! #sarahmjohnsonart #holdingontohope #blackslivesmatter #blm #valueyourself #valueblacklives #change #hope #racism #abstractexpressionism #abstractart #abstractpainting #abstractartist #abstractartistofinstagram #abstractartoninstagram #gouachepainting #gouacheabstract #arttherapy #conterporaryart #gesturalpainting #brushstrokes #sarahmjohnson (at Chicago, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBTHK96H37-/?igshid=1cjngzwiaedvi

Note to self,

Stop listening to those sad songs. Don’t watch those movies that make you cry. Stop wallowing in yourself pity. Pick your fat ass off the ground and do something. Go to the gym, take a walk, spoil yourself for once. Remind yourself of all the reasons you want to try. Make memories for yourself to look back on. Stop being so angry with life and talk to someone about it, maybe a professional or someone you fully trust.

Get back in your groove of being happy because hating yourself and being angry and depressed all the time, allowing yourself to lay in your bed all day every day feeling emotionless, hurting yourself more than you know you are, isn’t working for you. It never has and it never will.

Learn how to enjoy your life, your time with people. Learn to be humble, learn to understand better, learn to be more patient and kind, teach yourself and if you can’t then have someone else teach you.

You’re new at this. You’re new at knowing how to be happy. You get that. But you can’t keep falling back to your old ways when things go wrong. You have to lift your head up and say “I can get through this without getting mad, upset, hurt.” For Christ’s sakes you’re a grown ass adult now. You think life is almost over but you have your whole life ahead of you. Make friends, build a relationship. Keep yourself happy for once.

Stop trying to fix people, stop trying to make them happy. Do what makes you happy. Even if what makes you happy is living in a cardboard box on the side of the road. Just make peace with yourself. And if you’re ever feeling down. Come back to this. Read it. Over and over and over. Read it 20 times in the same night if you have to. Because you deserve better than to be dragging yourself down. Open your eyes, kiddo. Because life is better, you just have to see it.

Today was my birthday

I'm 27 and I finally have an appointment to get medicine for the mental illness that's been a drain on my relationships for years. Being sick doesn't absolve me of the wrongdoing in my actions, I know, I still need to focus on DOING better. I could go on about how I'm doing this to make a better me, but I'd be lying if I said so. Truth is, there's a girl. Ironic that I had to drive her off before I'd get the help I need. That she'll probably never know that I'm ultimately doing this because of her, for her, seems a little like poetic justice.
