Panic after a break-up?

[Duskpire]

Have you ever experienced a panic attack after someone broke up with you?

No, I don't think I've ever experienced a panic attack as such at the moment, but for sure repeated little kind of panic shocks over the following days, like when you go to do something that you would normally do with the other person, or make too much food, or walk into a room and expect them to be there.

Not me.

 

[Jazzy]

Not a panic attack. I just felt miserable and lost.

Never had a panic attack. It does feel weird though when I've broken up 'cause you're use to doing things with that other person and now you're doing them alone.

100% - I'd been with my ex for almost 12 years when we separated, and it felt like I'd lost a limb.

It's been over a year, but I still miss the bond we'd built. I'm with someone new and I'm hopeful we can build something similar, although sometimes I do still feel a bit sad that things couldn't be worked out..

I feel the same way. It's nice to know that I'm not alone in this. I've been with my new girlfriend for 9 months and I still think about my ex wife sometimes. But never about taking her back because of everything she did and put me through.

 

[Oblivion Knight]

Likewise. I sometimes dream my ex wife and I still being together, and I still feel quite low when I wake up. Deep down though, I don't think I could take her back because I'd be in a state of constant paranoia about her breaking things off again.

Don't get me wrong, I love my new partner - she's great, and would never break things off with her to be with my ex.

Never experienced it myself, but I'm sure I would feel down in the dirt.

I've been with my ex for half the amount of time of your relationship and i started to feel a little bit better after 2 years, but now i feel totally recovered from that, you know you can fix your heart by letting it go completely and find new horizons with your current partner!

I did experience this six years ago when my partner broke up with me. It was the worst rejection moment of my life.
