I am so lost

Literally that.

My relationship ended in Feb and he finally moved out in September. Thing is we still get on well. Better than we did in the relationship.

I miss my kids when they're not here, but struggle when they are.
I'm struggling to work well, but I love my job.
College is just about killing me off.
I feel like my friends have disappeared because they don't know what to say.

I feel heartbroken. But I don't really know why.

I feel so lost

Give yourself a break. That’s a lot of upheaval so you’ll need time to adjust.

Have you had any counselling? You’ve had an awful lot going on and often it can help just to take a moment and talk things through. It’s a cliche but be kind and gentle to yourself, you need time to adjust and get yourself back on an even keel. Although you split in Feb it probably didn’t feel completely real until September when your ex moved out. I imagine it all still feels very new and raw.

It’s okay to still feel lost and heartbroken, you are human. Is it your ex and your relationship that upsets you the most, or are you mourning the loss of the family unit? Equally it could be a bit of both.
