Be it a marriage or a relationship, it is never easy to let go of the person after separation, especially when you have loved wholeheartedly. This situation may cause emotional turmoil, even if you are the person who has ended up the relationship. It can turn your world upside down and might make it hard for you to be efficient throughout your work day.
To cope with your mental health amid the hard situation, Arouba Kabir, mental health counsellor and founder of Enso Wellness told Hindustan Times, “Every relationship between a couple starts with a hope for a beautiful future, the initial days are filled with love and happiness but sometimes the forever we envisioned is short-lived. Separating from your partner thus becomes an emotionally draining experience – regardless if it was mutual or due to someone’s fault."
She also stated that if the person doesn’t effectively manage the stress and unpleasant feelings associated with their separation, the result could gradually have a more profound impact on them.
She laid down the ways to keep mental health at bay during emotional times.
1. Express your emotions: The expert shared that separation takes a toll on a person’s emotional health making it extremely important that all the feelings are expressed. “You can try journalling, seeking support from friends and family, joining a support group or talking to a therapist," she added.
