You can start with writing diary. Once you have written your innermost thoughts you are at peace. Writing diary has helped me a great deal. Try doing things that brings joy in your life. You can try reading books, yoga and meditation, cooking, dancing, swimming or just anything that make you feel happy. Sometimes even talking to someone, whom you are close to helps. It gives you the courage and confidence to get over the past. Just remember that your life is precious and make the most of it.

Ok. I understand you had a breakup with your Ex and presently living in misery. I like to ask Did you really breakup with him? He had but not you. You are still living in your past. Unless you let it go you wont feel your energy. It is more important to feel your energy first than diverting it. Nothing is hard or easy. its us who make it. Go in the depth of misery and at one stage you will come out of it. presently you are not living even in misery. You are running away from yourself. seeking help. Help yourself. cause you are the only one who can come out of it. things what you are saying about him he is doing this and that. successfully diverted his energy, actually he is trying to run away from his own feelings what he had for you. Trying to keep himself busy. hahaha. Women is creative and she doesn’t need to divert her energy to create anything. You just need to let go and feel yourself. Dont be moron like him and run away. Recognise yourself, your abilities and live freely.
Live with totality. Feel everything but be aware whats happening. If you are in misery then feel it, live it and watch it. soon will be gone. SIT WITH YOUR OPEN EYES AND LET HAPPEN WHATEVER HAPPENS TO YOU. DO NT BE SHY. you will cry, you will be sad but dont be a part of it. just be a watcher. At the end it will go away and you will feel better. TRUST ME

Write. Keep a journal and write 3 pages a day. Do not let anyone read this. These are just your thoughts and it does not matter what you write down. This allows your right brain to be creative and spiritual. Keeps the left brain at bay.

you NEED to gain some courage and the confidence to get back on your feet. You can do those same activities also its just in the matter of you doing it. You should consider dating, if and when your ready again, after all he isnt the last man in this world. It’s depressing enough that your always sad do you want to feel that way forever? It’s ok to feel the way you do after all you guys did break up and to see him STILL especially since you both work together just makes it harder enough. You are probably done with all the crying and devastation, but put that aside and I say you shine once again and make him look bad like he lost something good.
