Every day,
millions of people around the world suffer from love. One entry into a new chapter
is very easy, others have a bigger problem with it. We can only wonder what the
best way to get over heartbreak is. Rapper and writer Dessa came up with an
unconventional way and she describes how she worked with a neuroscientist to
try to get her brain to fall out of love with her ex.
Owls are nocturnal creatures. They’re wide awake at night and they sleep during the day. If this sounds like bliss to you, then, like about 20 percent of the population who find themselves most active at around 9 pm, you may fall into the same category as our feathered friend. Night owls often have difficulty waking up in the morning, and like to be up late at night. Studies of animal behaviour indicate that being a night owl may actually be built into some people’s genes. This would explain why those late-to-bed, late-to-rise people find it so difficult to change their behaviour. The trouble for night owls is that they just have to be at places such as work and school far too early. This is when the alarm clock becomes the night owl’s most important survival tool. Experts say that one way for a night owl to beat their dependence on their alarm clocks is to sleep with the curtains open. The Theory is that if they do so, the morning sunlight will awaken them gently and natura...

I think the best way is focusing only on Yourself for a while.
2. Do you think it's a good idea to "physically" get love out of your head
I don't think so, it's a very important experience in everyone's lives so getting rid of it is counterproductive.
3. Do you have any of your own ways of getting over each other after the breakup?
Yes it's in my answer to the first question :D
Understand and emphasise all weaknesses of person you've been with, ain't nobody perfect, then I think the easiest way to overcome heartbreak is just wait, it needs time.
2. Do you think it's a good idea to "physically" get love out of your head.
No. Love is the most important thing in life, if it didn't work out it wasn't meant to be so wait for another opportunity.
3. Do you have any of your own ways of getting over each other after the breakup?
Yeah, I've already mentioned those in first question.
And of course "love is all you need", so you have to hope for another chance.
There is no one remedy for this. Everyone is different and I think we can not generalize in this particular field. I know various of methods which helped very different people, but from my experience it would be simply a company of friends, people close to you.
2. Do you think it's a good idea to "physically" get love out of your head
As I mentioned above - it really depends on the broken-hearthed person.
3. Do you have any of your own ways of getting over each other after the breakup?
It is crucial not to stay alone and meet/hangout with people. And the most important thing - do not get in touch with ex-partner.
In my opinion, generally there are two ways, first is to focus on our hobbies or try to find some new interests to divert our attentions. Second is to get over more and more heartbreaks until we don't need to care about heartbreak anymore.
2. Do you think it's a good idea to "physically" get love out of your head
I will use the lyric from one of my most favourite songs L-O-V-E , "Love is more than just a game for two", I think love is mentally important for every people, so I think we had better not to get it out of our head.
3. Do you have any of your own ways of getting over each other after the breakup?
It is better to think about how not to make a breakup, then we don't need to get over anything, to think more further, choose our partners more carefully before we might have breakup, don't just seek for a short pleasure.
No, I think it's not good idea to get rid of love in physically way. But who knows...I've never tried.
No, it's hard and it's painful. But sometimes we just to stop. And live.
1. To me it is to find something that would keep you mind busy and not think about it.
2. I wouldn't say so. There are thing in our lives we have to deal with in traditional way.
3. There is no way to get over such things. Time seems to be the only cure.
As a person, incapable of experiencing such thing, I have no idea. Initially I thought I was in a disadvantage compared to other people, but the more I drive further, the more I see that experiencing feelings, love in particular, actually causes more problems than gains You.
2. Do you think it's a good idea to "physically" get love out of your head?
I do not know what love feels like myself, but from what I heard, which inconveniences it causes, of course it would be good idea.
3. Do you have any of your own ways of getting over each other after the breakup?
Not getting into breakup, apparently. By never starting serious relationships at all.
2. Whatever floats your boat is good, as long as it helps you and does no harm to the others. It’s actually a very interesting concept that, I must admit, encourages me to do some kind of research and reading about this topic myself. On the other hand, the brain activity is bunch of neurons and chemical reactions, so who knows, maybe getting over a breakup works exactly like that, but we are simply not aware of this fact?
3. No, I don’t have any way to get over it. It’s just an emotion that I rework in my head, think about the pros and cons of this decision, spend time with my friends and family and just enjoy life without this person in my life. I strongly believe that only people worth our time stay in our lives, and the ones that were supposed to teach us something, as soon as they do their job, just disappear from our lives. These are not the people that we should grieve over, and maybe thanks to that kind of thinking it’s quite easy for me to get over all kinds of breakups.
Many people think that the best way on the broken heart is to find another love. I disagree. I think we need to work out all of our emotions, feel the pain, analyze our relationship through. That way we can learn about yourself, notice our mistakes or understand what went wrong and learn from that mistakes. This is really important in case of starting new relationship to do it without emotional baggage from past relationships.
2. Do you think it's a good idea to "physically" get love out of your head
As long as it works for somebody and doesn't make harm to others it is a good idea. But if it was so easy, what would love mean and what would teach us draw conclusions for the future?
3. Do you have any of your own ways of getting over each other after the breakup?
My getting over break up is pretty bookish. First days I can't stop cry, can't eat, can't sleep and I'm a total mess. After few weeks, when I feel little bit better, I start to look for events, concerts, I sign up for classes of something totally new for me, for example ceramics last time and try to spend as much time with my friends and family as I can. The pain doesn't go away, it's just being forgotten.
I’m pretty sure that those manipulations with her brain never helped her actually :) It’s the basic psychotherapy, placebo if you wish. Pretty same result she’d get if she write everything she feels about the guy on the piece of paper and then burnt it, people just like symbols. If you want to quit smoking, if you REALLY want to, you can start reading the book by Allen Carr and you will quit, but not because of the book, but because you wanted to. The book in this story will be also only the symbol.
Well, yeah, as I wrote in the answer to the first question, I’ll just make myself as busy as possible to not have the time for crying and all that misery :)
It depends on the circumstances surrounding the heartbreak. But I’d say that staying occupied and having things to do is a great distraction, also spending time with your friends can be a good way not to be excessively sad. Like everything, it takes time to get over a heartbreak, heal and keep living on. It’s very hard to do that, since scientists have proven that the same parts of your brain are active during a heartbreak as well as when feeling physical pain.That’s also why it’s so painful.
2. Do you think it's a good idea to "physically" get love out of your head.
I don’t think it’s a good way. Everyone in their life will at some point experience a heartbreak and it’s a new learning experience, so we know how to get through it. and if it happens next time, we will know how to manage that situation.
3. Do you have any of your own ways of getting over each other after the breakup?
It really depends on the person and how involved they were. Our coping techniques also change throughout our lifetime, so one method will work for some time, but it doesn’t mean it will work forever. That’s why it’s important to talk to people you like and share your experiences with one another to see if they have some strategies you can adapt.
2. In my opinion this idea is ridiculous, becuase love is a natural feeling and everyone should have chance to experience it.
3. Yes, I share my advices in the first questions. :)
2. It is an experience, maybe bad or hurting but it teaches you a lot. In my opinion, without experience, it is almost impossible to build a good and long-term relationship.
3. Delete or throw away any of the things that can remind you about the heartbreak for some period of time to get your head cool and make your thoughts clear. After that, it is so much easier to live further.
A broken heart is a terrible emptiness. The best way is to fill the void of a loved one with work or hobby. Games are great in this situation, because you can indulge in the game without thinking about what it was. And time will fix the rest :D
In my opinion, you can't get out of love physically. Love is a feeling that is built up over the years and it is difficult to get rid of it or kill it in a second. The pain must pass by itself. In addition, replacing the void with another love is a terrible idea, because we will require this new person to be like the previous one. Love is meant to be a sincere feeling that unites people, not a replacement ...
You know, they say that if you never try, you will never know!
I think that love is the most beautiful thing that can happen to us, but unfortunately it rarely lasts forever.
I think it's easy to say that we should choose our partners more carefully. Love blinds and there aren't many disadvantages at first sight.
I personally try not to give myself time for crying, and the sooner you enter stage two the better.
Unfortunately, I agree with you, the pain remains forever and we only learn to live with it.
I agree with you that it depends a lot on symbols, but I was wondering if if such therapy would work, would I give it a try...
2. Well, I don’t think this is a good idea.
3. After parting, I just scored on her and that's it. As people say, time heals. So over time, as it’s all gone)
I agree with you that there is no clear method for parting and each of us goes through it differently.
