How do you stay strong after a break up?
Here’s how to stay mentally strong when you’re going through a breakup:
- Allow yourself to grieve. Grief is what will heal the wound.

How long after a break up do you start feeling better? Studies suggest that most people start to feel better around three months post-breakup. One study, which evaluated 155 undergraduates who’d been through breakups in the last six months, found that 71 percent start to feel significantly better around the 11-week mark, or around three months.
Why is silence so powerful after a breakup? It sends a clear message that you won’t allow the breakup to take hold of your life, giving you a chance to find perspective and heal. Lastly, whether you want to get back with your ex or not, the power of silence is guaranteed to make them miss you!
