How do you survive a breakup? I mean not the end of a love story, but the end of everything you were building with someone you loved with all your heart

Feel all of your feelings fully, even the raw ones. Distance yourself from them for as long as you need to find a solid place in your heart again. Take yourself on dates – do the things you meant to do with them. Rewrite your story and rediscover life by yourself and with other loved ones. You will live again. You will love again. You will be loved again. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but it will come.

Time is the best medicine. I know it doesn’t feel like it now, but healing happens slowly, quietly, and more deeply than we expect. Be kind to yourself, every emotion you’re feeling is valid. Grief is not a straight path, and there’s no ‘right’ way to go through it. Just take it one day at a time. 🫂

Don’t fear any emotion, go through it feel it pain, anger, sadness any and all of them. But don’t let yourself fall into the darkness, use everything to rebuild yourself and more importantly learn from it, because it takes two to tango. If you don’t do this, you are doomed to repeat the same patterns and yes they same type of man. Trust me it’s been a couple of heartbreaks

Feel what you need to, that’s healthy. It ended for an objective reason though and wasn’t reciprocal anymore. Once you frame it like that it’s a lot easier to try and move on from it. Don’t discount your feelings though. Bottling it in is no bueno.

Never stop yourself from crying. It’s really important. It’s how your brain flushes out excess hormones to help restabilise your brains chemical balance and avoid mood disorders. It’s like how sweating helps you rid excess heat from your body. Except instead of heat it’s hormones.

I changed the ebook with love and a deeper understanding of what people need when they are trying to grow. I realized that knowing something is not always enough to change a pattern. Sometimes we need space to slow down, feel safe, and listen to ourselves without judgment. I wanted this ebook to feel less like an explanation and more like gentle support—helping you find clarity, trust your own voice, and choose what feels right for you. All that is thanks to you 103 pages filled ❤️ with love and appreciation. Elias. (Ps: the second part how I created vision labs arrive soon).

This queerling is the most helpful person I’ve ever met. And we met on @collective! We’d been chatting here for some time. When I landed in Toronto, they drove me from the airport to my Airbnb. They invited me to their Thursday vegan potlucks, which was a great way to meet new queers. They offered me an apartment to rent in the house they live in. I lived there all by myself. They helped me navigate Canada. And when I was sick. And many other times. And they drove me to the airport on my last day. I wouldn’t have made it without you. Thanks a billion for everything, @biscuit 🏳️‍🌈🩷
