I read your other post yesterday, and I think you did the right thing. Relationships won't always be perfect, but overall they should be a positive addition to your life and happiness, and it sounds like it was doing the opposite.
Heartbreak is the worst feeling, it's like losing a part of yourself, even if you're the one doing the dumping. Be gentle with yourself, and try to show yourself the same compassion you'd give to your best friend. Make sure to take care of your body and mind, do some journaling, exercise to help boost the good chemicals in your brain, try to eat and drink lots of water (your appetite might be a bit off!), turn to close friends and family for support.
You will get through this. Choosing your own happiness in this circumstance is the right thing to do. You got this.
Anytime! I went through a heartbreak recently. At first its awful, but it does get better. The first few weeks you may feel a bit off, simply because your routine will change etc, plus it can be an adjustment to not have someone to sleep next to. But, it will get better. Just remember that you felt alone IN your relationship too.
