I listened to this podcast nonstop the first week. There are a lot of helpful interviews with people who have been through heartbreak.

This was raw and vulnerable, and it helped me understand the process a person goes through. So that I feel less alone in what I’m going through.

Relatable and helpful breakup learnings from a therapist.

This video made me hopeful that I can find someone else when the time is right. I also liked how she talked about her recovery with raw vulnerability. I feel a lot of similar emotions.

This was a helpful video for practical advice on how to handle a breakup, and it was reassuring because he did everything “wrong” and was still OK.

Tara Brach’s “Grief” section has been a wonderful help during my heartbreak. Sometimes, I’ll put on a video or talk in the background and let it naturally sink in. Other times, I’ll actively watch or listen part of a talk in the morning or before bed.

This woman is young (relationship was high school/college), but lots of shared emotions and thoughts I found reassuring regardless of age. And helpful advice.

Another podcast episode. This episode was helpful for me to understand the importance of no contact. The other episodes didn’t resonate with as much, but this episode was helpful.

I've been listening and watching a lot of Bo Burnham's recent material. His Netflix special "Inside" has resonated with me — the songs and general theme — as I feel depression, hopelessness, and nihilism from my breakup. You can also listen to the songs on Spotify if you don't have Netflix.

This is a really impactful breakup movie. There were so many similarities with my breakup, and others in the past like it, that it flooded me with emotions and opened me wide. I cried a lot and woke up the next morning with many emotions still lingering which needed to be felt. So many quotable, powerful scenes... and so well-acted. It hurt to watch this, but a necessary hurt.

I found a lot of the self-help out there completely misinformed at best, harmful at worst. It's disappointing so many people trying to get help can't find good material. So when I found Terri Cole talking about actual, evidence-backed help... I was impressed. It's a great podcast about boundary-setting.

This was a great Depresh Mode podcast episode. It was more about the grief of death, but the guest was very vulnerable, intelligent, and made a lot of great points about grief.

I was really surprised by how much I liked this video. She has excellent resources and insights. She also has a really helpful Notion website with tons of great quotes, resources, and guides.

Lots of great tips in this video. One that stuck out to me: Forgive yourself. I felt a lot of shame and sadness blaming myself for not loving well enough and the mistakes I made. I felt if I could "be better", I could have saved both of my recent breakups.

I really liked the paper analogy that the creator of this video made. It was helpful to visualize why there's pain after a breakup. There were good other insights in this video too.

Some helpful re-framings of a breakup from a psychotherapist. I liked how she mentioned that breakups don't have to be viewed as "failures", but instead, as "complete".

I was lucky to stumble across Amy Chan first on Verywell Mind, and her viewpoint on breakups is refreshing — and eye-opening. She has a great website, and her book seems fantastic as well. I recommend you gobble up as many of her podcast appearances as you can.

Another resource by Amy Chan (mentioned above). This is a great, helpful meditation to release some attachments to an ex. I like that she mentioned you may have to repeat the meditation many times. Healing is a practice, not a one-and-done.

This article is great for men or women. It's important to understand how to rewire our heart for healthier relationships. I've been learning my patterns with my past relationships — and how they've been wound responses instead of from a healthier space.

I haven't found as much quality content for men dealing with breakups as I have for women. And while any content around breakups can be helpful regardless of sex and gender, it's nice to see a quality article written specifically for men.

Here's a simple list, and a good reminder, of healthy habits to form to hang in there during a breakup.
