I'm sorry to hear that you're going through a tough time! Getting over a toxic relationship can be really challenging, but it's important to prioritize your own well-being and take steps to move on. Some of the things you can do to help yourself heal include cutting off contact with him so you may establish boundaries and give yourself space to heal, focus on self-care by doing things like exercising, eating healthy, getting enough sleep, and engaging in activities that make you feel good about yourself. You may also reach out to friends and family for support, or consider talking to a therapist or counsellor so they may provide you with strategies to cope with your emotions and move forward in a healthy way. Remember that healing takes time, but it's OK to feel sad or angry or confused. But with time and support, you will be able to move on and find happiness again.
