Original Reddit post

By this I mean after being with a girl for a long time getting attached and having a rough breakup how long did it take you to feel good again just by yourself. My last breakup was the only relationship I’ve ever had in sobriety and well emotions hit harder in sobriety. I journaled once or twice a day for like 3 months just about the situation my mind couldn’t leave her. Eventually around 4-6 months I started getting better less thoughts and less pain. I am now pretty happy alone I have a good friend group, I do sports decently often I wish I could more but still a decent amount, workout daily, read a lot, and I just have been feeling great. Also have been slowly weening myself off of doom scrolling I still do hit up Reddit but Id say it’s far less of a bad addiction then doom scrolling. submitted by /u/crippinneversippin
