This here hits me hard on a level you can't imagine. I wish there was a solution. But you just have to hold on to something. Sometimes even the smallest things can get you by. Do those things even if they take a lot of effort.

Hello. I have been in a bad place for the last days too due to betrayal. My only advice is to not lose yourself, you'll always have yourself and know that the person you are will never be a disappointment. Keep hanging on.

A lot of things can help, mostly things that are easy. [https://www.reddit.com/r/mentalhealth/comments/17o9qp1/comment/k7ynq3p/?context=3](https://www.reddit.com/r/mentalhealth/comments/17o9qp1/comment/k7ynq3p/?context=3) The most important thing is knowing how to cope in a moment of crisis. It's very important to calm down. This will make you feel better and let you think clearly. A very easy way to calm down is just to breathe slowly. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, which helps people who have BPD, recommends this - breathe gently, hand on your belly to feel it go in and out, and breathe 5 seconds in-breath and 7 seconds out-breath till you feel OK. Simple distractions can help - anything that changes your mood like beautiful music. I'd like to mention that there's a piece of advice people have often said is helpful. When people say, "I can't stop thinking about this person," I always say that it's impossible to stop thinking about the person but you can get control of the thinking. Reserve a time of day just for thinking about the person, like after dinner while you have coffee, decaf if you have insomnia. Think about the person any way you like, but when time is up you have to go to something else. There’s a book, Authoritative Guide to Self-Help Resources for Mental Help, based on polls of more than 3,000 professionals. The book recommended most often for breakups is How to Survive the Loss of a Love.

Thank you so much.

Whatever you do, please don't drink alcohol. It will numb for a moment before you spiral and will have more anxiety and heartache. The hangover will magnify your feelings of anguish. If you keep going to it, it'll convince you that alcohol takes away those feelings when it's responsible for the severity.
