Oh, man. I feel you, i feel you so much.

I’ve gone through pretty nuch the same.

First things first… it’s gonna take time, to start feeling life normal again. It’s better if you already know about this beforehand. For me it was 1.5-2 years ago.

Talk to a psychologist. It’s good to be able to talk to somebody that is literally trained in helping you go through the pain of the trauma.

Go to the gym. It’s almost a meme, but trust me it works. It fucking works.

Start dieting along with the gym. Trust me, seeing yourself thinner and more tonic does help a lot.

I’m not sure what to advice about dating. I tried to date at the beginning but i quickly realised i was just trying to fill a void, and that just doesn’t work. Nowadays i managed to find my equilibrium, still single but i realised i got much more picky regarding women.

Do social stuff. For me it’s been a language course for a while (underwhelming, to be honest) and nowadays piano lessons.

Btw: stay away from the dating apps. They just don’t work, it’s an awful waste of time.

Good luck man!
