I know the pain all too well. Took me 5 years to get over a breakup and it was hell. Best thing that I found was to accept the fact that you’re in a shit spot and think of how you can elevate from there. It’s easier said than done, but it’s the voice in your head that likes to tell you, you can’t do things because your stressed or depressed. Which than turns into excuses for you not to better yourself. I have Kids as well and used them as my motivation. I saw what I went through and am happy to go through it as long as I know they won’t have to cuz I did the hard part for them paving the way for them to be greater than me. Chin up head high. Hit me up if you need a friend🤞🏾🙏🏾💪🏾💯

Everyone so far has very good advice. It’s all about time. Time will keep going. It’s up to you to realize and accept that. You may always miss that person….or not. The one constant in anyone’s life is really only time. It does get easier….it changes. Always does. You’re a parent so you have a priority and obligation as a parent to make sure you keep going. You may have moments where you don’t ….it’s normal ..it will happen. But don’t make the mistake of staying in that moment. Remember your child …occupy your mind and time will do the rest. Think of it that way. Time can carry some of that emotional load if you let it.

The best thing I've learned from a breakup is that you have to take care of yourself. First you have to let yourself cry whenever you need to, I've had nights in the months after my breakup where I would just shut down and cry before going out somewhere or going to work and letting those feelings run their course made a huge difference. Secondly, focus on taking care of yourself and in your case taking care of your son as well. Having that purpose will help keep your mind off of the breakup. And lastly, always try to seek the positive where ever you can. This is the hardest part but after a month or two it'll become a habit and having a positive mindset makes such a huge difference. I'm so sorry that you're going through this but just know that things will get better and you will be ok. You're stronger than you think.

"Nobody ever figures It out"

How can you be sure about that when nobody figures It out? You never claimed directly you figured It out, yet you are talking like you figured It out since you know that "nobody figures It out".

Maybe there is someone Who figured It out?! How would you know? The only way to know that It cant be true is that you figured out that nobody figures It out.

To come to the conclusión that nobody ever figures It out, you literally had to figure that out that nobody ever figures It out. It makes no logical sense.

A smarter statement would be:

"I am kinda sure that nobody ever figures It out but i dont know shit about fuck and just talking out of my ass to sound smarter than i am"

What you tell yourself and how you tell it is important. So, we can choose how we want to read this but ultimately I hope we all can treat ourselves a little bit better.

Then use your inheritance to pay for health insurance - it’s not that expensive. I’m starting to wonder if you really want to get motivated or just want to bitch about your unwillingness to function (or as I used to tell my mother, “I can’t want to”).

I disagree.

There are many ways to leave a footprint, including ways that are selfless and nameless, to help those currently and in the future.

Then what the hell does it have to do with being selfless. If anything it is about being selfish to pursue and take those risks to obtain greatness. Also I don't believe legacy hinders greatness but greatness adds to legacy.
