Block His Number and Move on With Your Life
If you’ve struggled with getting out of an emotionally abusive relationship, then you have come to the right place. Finally freeing yourself from such toxicity can honestly be a huge relief. Unfortunately, you will have days where it’s tough to cope, but I promise you that you’ll get over it. Though your heart may be broken, it is up to you to mend it again. Congrats, you have gotten out of the awful relationship. Now, it’s time for you to bounce back because you are 100% in control of your life again. Here are a few steps to healing from emotional abuse in a relationship.
1. Allow yourself to grieve – CRY. Let it all out. Yes, even leaving an emotionally abusive relationship hurts. Crying is the best medicine.
2. Throw those memories away – All of those pictures and teddy bears… don’t even look at them. I would highly recommend getting rid of all gifts. You should only throw them out if that’s what you feel you need to do. Otherwise, storing the gifts in a bin and hiding them from yourself is another good option.
3. Don’t look back – Don’t regret it. Move on and don’t look back. You saved yourself and your sanity. Emotional abuse is a serious and common issue that many people face in their relationships. After all, you are doing what is best for you.
4. Do what you love – Keep yourself busy with the things that you love. Head to the gym, bake cookies, re-watch your favorite Netflix series. Keep yourself occupied and happy.
5. Get a makeover – This is totally up to you. If you would like to give yourself a makeover, I would recommend a new hairdo or taking yourself on a shopping spree. Giving yourself a makeover could help boost your self-confidence.
6. Learn to love yourself again – Emotionally abusive relationships are serious and can definitely lower your self-esteem. Now that you are out of the relationship, learn to love yourself again. It will take some time, but be kind to yourself. You are only human. Remember, to love yourself is to be free.
