Breakups are the worst feelings to have, but everyone goes through them. They can cripple you emotionally, and it is a painful thing to be rejected by someone else. Here are 13 ways to understand what you are going through.

1. You don't know how to react.

2. Your brain hates it.

3. Emotional pain and physical pain share the same neural pathways.

4. It can be quite sudden.

5. Getting over someone is tough.

6. You keep retracing your steps, wondering what you did wrong.

7. The thought of him / her, consumes you.

8. Your body actually releases a lot of stress hormones.

9. You become tired, and unable to make good decisions.

10. You may be like this for days, or weeks, or worse- years.

11. You become angry at everyone who wants to help you, or just be there for you.

12. Crying yourself to sleep at night is a thing now.

13. You refuse to meet anyone, or socialize.

But you'll realize soon enough, everything will be okay. And that maybe it was for the best. After all, everyone who isn't "the one" is replaceable. 

Just listen to this:

You'll be okay.
