So I am about to have a nervous breakdown. I really need to get some help because I can't get over my ex boyfriend. At first I thought that it meant that maybe we were supposed to be together but some friends told me that he pretty much hates me. I still can't let him go though. Then i was just dating a guy who looks just like him so that was really messing with my mind. I am just sick of being hung up on him and I need someone to tell me how to let that go. Figured I'd ask my Mylot friends first- how do I get over this guy. It's been 3 years since we broke up! I need to move on already!

Its not easy breaking up with someone. I have been there so many times but thank goodness I was able to handle it. In my opinion, if you feel that bad you should seek professional help. Friends are good to vent to but you need some expert advice before its too late. Good luck

I feel like the clock is ticking for me to get help. I saw some old friends that we used to be friends with when we were together. They want me to come hang out but I know he will be there and it will be too much for me to take. I don't want to say anything to them about how I want to go to therapy cause of it because they'll think I'm crazy. My friends say I should just go and if he's there then he's there and I shouldn't make such a big deal about it. I haven't seen him in three years so I know it will be really akward and he probably won't even talk to me.

I agree. Therapy would probably help you move on. You could contact a local women's center if they have one in your area or you could go to a mental health center. If you choose the latter though you will probably be in for a long wait. Also, if you have insurance you can find a therapost that way. Good Luck with a thorny problem.

what you need is to learn how to control your thoughts and thinking process. You need mind power for that is the only way to overcome your past hurts and feelings. It is the sure way to help you move on with your life. It is easy to achieve because once you have this, you will learn to attract to your self positive forces of nature and live more fufilled, live happier and live free. www.amazingtouch.blogspot.com

I dnt think a guy is worth being depressed for ... I can understand u had a lot hopes and aspirations for him , but it did not work out ... Ultimately , u shud realise that things are likely to change any moment. Now the choice is yours .. move on OR get destroyed .
