Are you broken? Tired? Sad?  But longing to feel what it truly means to be happy again, especially right after a heartbreak? Dealing with heartbreak and, let alone healing a broken heart is a tough undertaking that requires a lot of strength and courage. Given this, it begs the question, “Are you ready to start anew and work through the pain to attain happiness once again?” If so, begin by learning how to cope with heartbreak, and in the end, you will eventually find the happiness you rightfully deserve.

Heartbreak can be the worst pain a person could feel and experience. Both emotional and physical aspects are triggered like a gunshot at the very core. Thus, the heart oozes like an open wound that cannot heal or fill for some time. The bliss you once touched had been taken away from your grip. In this situation, you are no longer in control. The one person who was once tied to your world has now vanished. As a result, it has casted grimness over your world that blackened your outlook on life. Life no longer seems fit.

The grief that stems from heartbreak can be of unimaginable scale, and the pain consistently lingers; every memory is a painful pinch or sometimes a harrowing stab right in the chest.

A glimpse of this tragic ache highlights the immense need to cope with heartbreak and find happiness in life once again. Along with this, it is crucial to note that healing takes time, and waiting for the heart to heal eventually leads to good decisions.

Cope With Heartbreak: Moving Forward Requires Patience

To cope with heartbreak, it is important to remember that pain eventually swells down as time passes by. Every day, we get to grow and experience new things. While heartbreak is one hell of a chapter in our story, just like every chapter and flip of a page, we move past it and start anew. Every bit of pain encompassed within our story of life is merely a fraction of our journey. And this journey does not end in one painful chapter.

We take the time to move on from it while acknowledging its happening and its purpose in our lives. Aside from this healing venture is the battle with time. As much as we want to rush it and no longer experience the immense pain then and there, healing from heartbreak and healing that broken heart takes time – it is a process.

No matter how minuscule your progress, every step you take matters. Reading this article is already a massive step you have taken.

That said, while you are in the midst of your healing to cope with heartbreak, set your time on doing things you love and being with other people you treasure. Embrace the present time and immerse in its glory.

Say Yes to Happiness: Embrace the Present

To finally attain that happiness you longed for, begin by embracing the thought that happiness does not only cling to one person. Happiness can be found anywhere!

A book that tackles on unhappiness is the self-help book Hiding My Unhappiness by Donald Marcus Welch. Perhaps, along your journey, you can find great benefit in this masterwork in order for you to successfully find happiness and cope with heartbreak.

Nonetheless, dealing with heartbreak and the unhappiness accompanying it does not imply the need to dwell on the past and the mistakes you’ve made. Healing does not require you to look back and fix the past because the past is inevitably settled. What you are expected to accomplish is to embrace the present.

You may think that the happiness you once felt is left behind in the past, so you are exhorted to look for it there.

The thing is, happiness lies at the very front of us. Take every day as an opportunity to create, read, write, seek, and surround. Every day is a gift to embrace, and every embrace plants a seed in our hearts that will eventually blossom into fulfillment and happiness.

To cope with heartbreak is not a swift journey, but nothing lasts forever, and so is pain. So, say yes to happiness and love, immerse in a healthy positive mindset, and trust in the process.

Finally, along with Donald Marcus Welch’s self-help book Hiding My Unhappiness, is his other compelling book, The Love I Thought I Knew, plus his other books that are must-haves for your collection. Grab your copies today!
