Hey all- posting about some new NFTs that are just coming out for the Dream DAO. Essentially, each minted NFT and subsequent sale helps seed fund projects for a non profit for Gen Zers called Civics Unplugged. The non profit is backed by Andrew Yang, the Rock and others. Regardless of if you like the NFTs, it’s a cool project to get involved in / read more about. https://opensea.io/collection/skywalkerz

Dude, hit the gym! This is your moment. Nothing you do is gonna fix your heart right now, but you can change your life.
Step 1) clean your apartment from top to bottom and throw out everything you don’t need in your life.
Step 2) grocery shop for healthy food
Step 3) gym membership and personal trainer
Step 4) probably score a promotion at work
Step 4) your heart will eventually heal and when it does you will be in a good place.

Broccoli, rice and chicken breast bro. Focus on yourself and see you in the gym 🤝
Was just recently in your shoes. Here are some things that I did that helped a lot:
- Started seeing a therapist. Mine helped me with more than just getting through the breakup—she also helped me gain my self-confidence back! She also helped me realize that there is no right or wrong way to process your breakup, but there are definitely things that you can do to honor yourself, your ex, and the death of a relationship.
- Go on a solo trip. I went to Denver less than two weeks after my breakup. I cried in the plane, cried in the hostel, and cried even more on the plane back. Did more crying than exploring, but it really helped to be out of my comfort zone and meet new people, even if it’s for just a small chat.
- Journaling! I began no contact with my ex the moment we broke up, so it helped to have an outlet for all the things I wanted to say to him. In the beginning, I would write about my day as if I was talking to him. It’s definitely like grieving and writing to the dead. Eventually you will naturally just write more to yourself, and the messages will get less sad and more uplifting.
Trust that it will get better. You may not want it to get better because it means moving away from the time that you were together; I felt that way too. It’s okay. Own and sit in your feelings for however long is necessary. If you need a listening ear, my DMs are open!

How about … go on a solo trip.
You said you don’t have many friends and family. And people are recommending spending time with or visiting friends and family 🤦🏻♀️
Even if you had a lot of friends in the city you live, who cares. This is the time to get comfortable being alone. Learning how to enjoy your own company. Getting to know yourself again.

Sorry OP 😔😔 can you plan a fun trip with a friend or family member? Or maybe you can travel to visit them?
Unfortunately, I don’t have many friends or family. The friends I did have either moved away or got married.

Have you tried edibles?
Time to go on some extended weekend vacations to visit friends in other cities
Been there. 1. Therapy 2. Start making friends. Seriously, you got to make an effort to not be alone. Bumble BFF, reach out to people here and see if anyone is new to your area too, anything

I’m sorry about your breakup. Spend time with friends and things that interest you. Take it easy on yourself.
Some people feel better by hooking up with new people.
