How to Move on From Heartbreak
Everyone experiences this at some point in their life but getting over the emotional pain is not easy. Unlike physical pain, there is no first aid for a broken heart, and other people struggle with it for years or even fail to recover.

What do strong people do to get over heartbreak?
Focus on yourself. Thinking about what went wrong and what you could have done will not change what has happened. Dwelling on one’s mistakes will only undervalue your self-worth. In times like this, you need to remember that you are your own best pal as well as your worst enemy. Do not choose the latter. Whatever it is you have been through, it does not make you less of a person and unworthy of another shot at love.
Seek positive company. Talking bad about your ex speaks more about you than about that person. Do not mingle with people who only want to talk about what you or your ex could have done or why they think your ex was a bad match. Good family and friends should help you recover, not make you a resentful, needy person.

If talking to a counselor can help you unload, you should not hesitate to do so. It is sometimes better to have a stranger listen to you than people who will most definitely take your side.
Do not seek an alternative. Part of the process of healing is going through the pain. Trying to numb that feeling by drinking or seeking another person’s company will only lead to more heartbreak. You should never do anything rash when you are emotionally devastated. Self-destructive behavior will ruin more relationships and could lead you down a path that might be difficult to get out of.

Look after your health. Some people actually die from heartbreak. Emotional stress can take a toll on your health. Try to find the time to heal, reduce stress, do something you love, eat healthy or do anything not destructive to get you back on your feet. Stay away from anger and loneliness.
Let yourself grieve. There will be moments, however, when the loneliness and frustration will get to you. This does not mean that you are weak. It is part of the healing process. Find a release for the negative emotions but do not let it take over your life. Cry or talk to a loved one about it.

Stay busy. Spend time with people who genuinely care for you. Look for a new hobby or go back to doing the things you love. Go somewhere peaceful and quiet away from places that will remind you of the pain.
Take your time. People have different ways of grieving and moving on from pain. You can’t get over it within a few days. Yes, it will be difficult but you will survive like so many others have. Do not force yourself to get over it because the only one you need to answer to is yourself. Do it in your own terms.
