The h Christmas Day e particularly difficult when you're in the throes of a breakup or Twixmas a situationship.
Psychotherapists advise you to limit your social media use and give yourself time to grieve.
As writer Annie Lord, author of Notes On Heartbreak, says, "It's pretty horrible because everyone's so loved up during Christmas".
Heartbreak is a universal emotion and chances are, everyone around you right now will have gone through it at some winter in their life.
Opening up to others about what you're going through can make you feel less alone.
Try some grounding techniques as a practical daily means to cope with heartbreak.
"If they message you 'Happy Christmas' don't start thinking it signals anything," says Lord.
Don't read into their texts as they're probably just trying to be polite.
A good rule of thumb is to assume that there is never a hidden meaning to their messages.
If you're struggling, reach out to friends and family. 2023 Christmas lass="summaryFeed_highLightText__NxlGi">2022 Christmas Lean on your support 741-741 Crisis Text Line Boxing Day morning >U.S. UK 24/7 Christmas the entire day Christmas Christmas Yassir Christmas t__NxlGi">Heartbreak Touroni Mashable Yassin six Terry ightText__NxlGi">Bilateral Stimulation (BLS) Yassin Yassin daily 988 116 123 Annie Lord s="summaryFe Notes On Heartbreak xlGi">UK 10:00 p.
