    I think that the break ups that have been hardest to heal from are the ones that are out of your control. But equally I think I've probably learnt the most from those experiences in the long run, and they've taught me what I want (and DON'T want) from relationships. It's so difficult when someone doesn't want or love you when you feel so strongly for them, but ultimately you want to be with someone who wants...no, NEEDS to be with you. Those are the ones that truly work out, rather than trying to force someone to see your value.
    Thanks Kati!

    I really liked that you talked about everyone, not only the people who got dumped, but also people who initiated the breakup or cheated or whatever. I'm dealing with a difficult relationship at the moment, 8 years together and I want to end it but I'm scared to death about hurting him and leaving him. Much too often when people talk about breakups and how to deal with them, they talk from the perspective of the "victim", who was hurt, cheated on, betrayed etc. But it's not always so black and white. Your video made me realise that even if you initiate the breakup or did something wrong, it's okay to grieve and to get better in time. Thank you

    One thing I made a point of when my ex and I broke up was continuing to listen to the songs I associated with our relationship. I loved those songs before and I wasn't going to lose them in the break up. If I didn't keep listening to them while I actively thought about other things, when I inevitably heard them again later on I would more than likely have been a mess. And make sure you keep doing things you love even if you used to do them with your ex.

    I really needed this, its been about 9 months since my breakup, a small 5 month relationship, but my first ever and I still have moments where I tear up a bit. It did shed light on myself thankfully. I'm trying to work harder to be a more successful person so I can be more proud of myself and hopefully be more attractive to others and so I'll try new things. Thank you for the video Kati, I do talk about it but it still hurts a lot.

    My boyfriend broke up with me about a week ago and the thing that has helped me the most to get through this tough week is spending time with my friends and speaking to them about him and reminiscing on all the good and positive times me and him had together and just getting it all off my chest to my friends, it has been so beneficial and even though it still hurts, I feel a lot better now :)

      Pink Rain Productions No, he contacted me 3 months ago asking me to have a threesome with him and his wife. After that, I blocked his number.

      My boyfriend of 4 years went to work one day last week and just never came home. there was no conversation, there was no fight he just left. He was very affectionate with me that morning wanting sex so badly that he made himself late for work. Which in hindsight looking back I’m very upset about this, but after four years together, I can’t even get over like that. I found out that he quit his job that day and moved. He won’t tell me what state he’s in or if he’s still in Florida. It’s all gaslighting every time I text him. I’m just completely blindsided and devastated. I wish so badly he could have atleast given me the respect of being honest. I feel sick over this and can’t get out of this horrible feeling of emptiness. Plus, he left me with this apartment that we just signed a lease on and I cannot afford by myself. I just feel so sick over this. I wish there was a book to guide me through it.

  • @SkylerAdriel

    I had a very difficult break up a few years ago after seeing someone for ten years! I was convinced I would hurt forever, but I did get through it. I still will get a pang of sadness on very rare occasions, but the sadness is more hurting for the person I was back then if that makes any sense. I wasn't treated very well. To be honest it took me just a little over a year to feel like myself again. I spent that time single. For me it took time, I cried often just to get those feelings out so I could approach the next day, I did watch a lot of Grey's Anatomy to turn my mind off. But then when I was ready I started treating myself with a lot of self care--getting my nails done, a bit of shopping, time at the beach... I made dates with myself lol. That part helped me the most I think. I met a new lad 6 months ago and so far he's a much better fit and a lot kinder to me. Now heartache is a little less scary because I know now I really won't feel that way forever if/when it happens again. :)

    My relashionship with my ex ended a few months ago and I remember having so much anger in me, what helped was I started to exercise more. At the time I was at a school break so I had nothing to do all day, and I found myself grieving and thinking about it way too much, so everyday I felt different about the situation...Everyday a new thought would come up, and mood swings would come with them. But exercising, and finding my way back into my school routine, hanging out with my friends...Even dating a little bit (even if nothing serious) would help and still does, because I've slowly gone back to realizing that that person is not the only one that has ever had an interest in me, and that I'm worthy of so much more. To this day, sometimes, memories make me upset and make me rethink the whole situation, but I feel stronger than I ever did, and way more in control of my emotions, so I know it will only get better and better. I've learned so much and if you're still in that initial phase, know that you will too.

    today is actually my birthday, and i am turning 19 how ironic, 2 weeks ago I actually went through my first breakup and I've been healing currently, because it was honestly my first relationship but this video hit the spot right now. I've been talking about it with friends and family and the thoughts have been my problem but I usually try to close them out.. it hurts but I just loved this video, it just felt right. thank you!

    We don't always know why they leave, either...but it isn't because of us necessarily! In recovery of C-PTSD, I confronted an old beau on a boundary issue 30 years ago just to get myself free of it and move on. (He had ended it suddenly after 3 years, without reason.) Out of the blue, he opened up about an abuse that he had suppressed then, and explained that is why he ran off and didn't say why. He had also no memory of what I confronted him about, but believed me and took full responsibility for the wrong. I'm not suggesting others do this. Nor am I saying it's reason to probe others on this stuff - I didn't; he volunteered it. But I share this because I spent 30 years believing the lie I told myself then, that there must just be something wrong with me that leads others to abandon and abuse me...that I wasn't worth it. I know that's wrong now, and talk back to that thought if it arises. But this unexpected evidence just blew me away - I truly was not the problem 30 years ago. Actually, I had been perceived as a key source of loving support, just like I thought I had been.

      My boyfriend of 4 years went to work one day last week and just never came home. there was no conversation, there was no fight he just left. He was very affectionate with me that morning wanting sex so badly that he made himself late for work. Which in hindsight looking back I’m very upset about this, but after four years together, I can’t even get over like that. I found out that he quit his job that day and moved. He won’t tell me what state he’s in or if he’s still in Florida. It’s all gaslighting every time I text him. I’m just completely blindsided and devastated. I wish so badly he could have atleast given me the respect of being honest. I feel sick over this and can’t get out of this horrible feeling of emptiness. Plus, he left me with this apartment that we just signed a lease on and I cannot afford by myself. I just feel so sick over this. I wish there was a book to guide me through it.

    It'd be cool if you could talk about this, about how to get over a breakup, when you have bpd and your significant other was your "favorite person". Having bpd myself, it feels like it's so much worse than it is for people who aren't dependent on their significant other... It's terrible and, personally, it always causes me a depressive episode which can last for 6+ months or even a whole year..

    My past relationship lasted 7 years and then all of a sudden he ended it blaming my chronic pain illness primarily. He cited the fact that often times I would cancel on seeing him because I was dealing with a flareup ( but "oddly", he added"you always seemed to be ok to go fishing." This was an activity that he introduced me to that I turned out to LOVE doing but couldn't do on my own because of a physical disability I was born with that was separate from my chronic pain illness. This indicated to me that he thought I might be lying and cancelling for some other reason. Prior to this day everything in our relationship seemed fine to me except for maybe a slowdown in our intimate times again due to my frequent pain which was something I really had no control over,but something we never really talked about (both of our faults). Prior to this relationship I had an 8 year relationship which although in hindsight had MANY issues, ultimately was ended by my S.O. for much the same reason. It seemed to him that I had "lost my spirit" and was no longer able to easily take the many frequent motorcycle trips we had taken joyously in years past, even though I continued to do my best to perservere it was true it was way more difficult for me. In my mind I thought I should get credit for that. Obviously he didn't feel the same and ended up meeting someone else and ultimately leaving me for her. In both accounts I felt blindsided and not given any say in the matter. Long story trying to be made shorter after the second break up and learning that statistically it's very hard for someone with a chronic pain illness to maintain a long term relationship. I decided I did not want to risk any further heartache and so decided to just put all my effort into shutting down that part of me that was interested in love,sex, and/or any further relationships. Yet I must admit I miss it from time to time and "those feelings" continue to surface. I keep telling myself, I am 54, physically disabled with a chronic pain illness so my time for "that stuff" is over. My question is how do I reconcile the 2 conflicting feelings?

    any time i saw or heard or thought about something that reminded me of my ex (like a song or an object or a quote) I would literally do a The Reassociation Dance which was just me jumping around and being weird but I would use it to make me re associate that thing or song with what i was doing and who i was with in that moment and not with my ex. eg, that song by daft punk no long reminds me of my ex it reminds me of driving in my car with my friend :D the more i did it the easier it was to go out in public and ingage with the world while i was overoming the breakup and it also helped me figure out how to move on without so many triggers!

    I know I felt with an Alicia Keys vibe too, but I just get over it, focus on the future, read a book, draw, and whatever! I've been this type of situation of loneliness and single from the past. But NOW, I don't care about love or stuff. I've watched on TV (especially on TH-cam) about divorces, love triangles, EVERYTHING of romance around everybody, but most people don't have the feeling too. I look and see everybody who's been heartbroken, or dumped too... I just saw and react to the people who has been in a break-up while they been trying to commit suicide! I was shocked in a distraughted way. I couldn't bear it to see themselves killed in a way. So I decided to not love someone, but only god, my family and friends who's got my back!

  • @Alisrovi

    Hey Kati, I have a question about socializing; I grew up as being the quiet one and shy, I did not talk much because my family doesn't really talk openly with their feelings, so I always keep my thoughts to myself. Now I always have this "fear" to talk openly, even with friends or family members, but when I do bring myself to talk freely, I mostly mumble and shy away... I don't know what to do, Should I just talk to them or ignore this? 🤔 Thanks, sincerely Me.

  • @waroftheworlds08

    I have just had my heart majorly broken a few months ago. I still feel really upset and hurt about it. I think talking about it is good but I feel like people may get sick of me talking about it or bringing it up. And everyone seems to just say things like.. Just move on or they just say something bad about my ex as if to help me feel better. Which isn't helpful. It's also extremely hard because only a small amount of people know I was even in a relationship because I'm not out at the moment. I'm 21 but I just haven't told my family. So I feel really lonely with this. My family doesn't know I have depression and actually neither did my ex. Thanks for the video. It's very well timed to how I feel at the moment

    Hey Kati! thanks for the awesome videos, they helped me threw alot. I had a question. Is it bad not telling your therapist about your self harm? My therapist is aware that I used to self harm but I recently started again and I didn't tell her. Should you tell your therapist every time you self harmed?

  • @krissymarklewis1793
    @krissymarklewis1793 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've been watching loads of your video's. My GF who I was with for a few years dumped me (on valentines day of all days) about 9 years ago and about 3 months later she was to someone else, engaged and they are now married. It was because I had mood swings that I was trying to hide but have since been diagnosed with cyclothymia which I can imagine was part of the problem as sometimes I just wasn't interested in anything.
    It's kinda hard though as I try to keep busy and the meds I took (carbamazepine) didn't help as they made me too tired to work as I'm a nightclub DJ so I just have to stay a bit drunk all the time. It's not ideal but things are not healing but I guess we all have our coping mechanisms. Keep up the good work though;)

    Hi Kati! I love you and your wonderful advice. I do have a question though..About 3 years back I had a really tumultuous 'breakup' with someone (we weren't actually together..long story haha) and I wasn't able to get over it until my current girlfriend entered my life. Not that it matters much now, but it is unhealthy to only be able to get over a breakup because of a new potential partner?

    My problem is that right now I know the guy I'm seeing is about to end things. But we've only been together a month. And I feel like I shouldn't be as heart broken as I am because it was only a month and it wasn't really love yet. But it hurts so so so bad. Because for the first time ever I could see myself actually falling in love with this guy and I could see us having a future together. Because when I fall, I fall hard. So it may have just been a month, but I'm still so upset.

    I just broke up with my first boyfriend of over 3 years and I’ve honestly never felt more miserable. I know things will get better with time, but I just wish things would be ok now. I’ve been with him for so long I don’t think I remember how to be on my own anymore and I’m not looking forward to relearning it. Although I know things had to end, it still really hurts to know I’ll never have him as my partner again

I lost my dad a few years ago and that day has always been the elephant in the room for me. I recently left therapy but in our last session my therapist suggested that maybe I do something special or go and visit him. Although I've had many Father's Day without him this will be the first Father's Day that I've acknowledged his absents and I'm really nervous. I just wanted to know your thoughts.

    Hey Kati, great video thanks!
    I broke up with my ex-wife 2.5 years ago when I came out as transgender. Dealing with mental health issues from denial and internalized transphobia, slow acceptance of my gender identity, transition and trying to get on with life was hard. I came close to attempting to commit suicide, but I chose to live.
    I'm still single and smelling the roses. I don't need a partner to fulfill me, but it would feel nice. My ex is perhaps one of my best friends, but I do miss what I had with her. But living authentically as me is the only thing I could do.

    know that when we decide to end it for real it will hurt as hell. Break
    ups are tough, even when you know that it's the right thing to do.
