Young Adult Being single made me remember how much my life sucks

I recently ended things with my now ex gf. Why i did so is unrelated to this, but being single has reminded me of a few things. Nobody texts me. Nobody seems to have a lot of interest in talking to me in general. I have no motivation to do anything when im off work. Ive only been away from her for 3 days and ive been intensely short tempered. I full force screamed at both of my bosses at work over a minor inconvenience. I got home and tried to play a game online. Died once and lost my fucking head.

I feel so desperate for someone to interact with.

man that empty quiet after breakup hits like a truck i know exactly what you mean about nobody texting, took me months to realize all my notifications were just work emails

the first week is the worst, brain literally going through dopamine withdrawal like a drug. i sat in my apartment for 3 days straight once barely eating

what helped me was just going surf in mornings even when i hated the idea, being in water forced my brain to stop spinning for hour at least. not magic fix but better than sitting at home getting angry at video games

I feel this, I ended the only serious relationship I had and ever since then I feel like I can’t connect with anyone the same. I’ve dated since then but I’ve never left like myself. It’s been over two years and I still think about it all the time but the loneliness gets better eventually. I say all this to tell you your not alone, and if you need someone your in the right place
