Heartbreak Can Literally Kill You, Says Very Sad Study.
Broken heart syndrome is a REAL thing.
Most often, we think of heartbreak as a certain sense of sadness and longing when a relationship ends that can only be stifled with pints of Ben & Jerry's and the constant reassurance from close friends that "You're better off, honey."

When we're dying of a broken heart, we think of it in the figurative sense, but can love kill you for real? Can you die from a heartbreak?

Dying of a broken heart may actually be more real than we think. Because new research has shown that heartbreak is a real occurrence, named "broken heart syndrome," and happens after the loss of a loved one or the end of a relationship. And it can literally kill you.

Put down the ice cream and allow us to explain.

In 2018, researchers from the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center found that a person's risk of suffering from a heart attack increases by 21 times in the first 24 hours after losing a loved one.

Over the course of five years, the researchers interviewed 2,000 patients who suffered from heart attacks, including asking them questions regarding triggering events. The results showed that the risk of heart attack is eight times higher than normal during the week after the death of a loved one. Though it slowly declines, that risk remains elevated for at least one month.

Previous studies have shown that one's health declines after the death of someone close, but this is the first study to discover this "broken heart syndrome."
Researchers are associating the increased risk with the feelings of depression, anxiety and anger that come with grief. These feelings lead to an increased heart rate and blood pressure, which makes blood more likely to clot and can ultimately cause the heart attack.

"The emotional sense of the broken heart may actually lead to damage, leading to heart attack and a physical broken heart of a sort," explains senior author Murray Mittleman, MD, DrPH.
It's interesting to consider that the death of a loved one can cause so much emotional pain that eventually, physical pain (in the form of a "broken heart" follows suit. It almost makes you rethink that pint of post breakup Ben & Jerry's, if only to prepare your arteries for the real heartbreak that may someday come.

I know what you may be passing through. In the end you will be fine. You are the only one that can bring Healing to you.

You have to let go and move on!

Don't try to stop the hurt and pain. Let the emotions flow. You should grieve, spend time to grieve(have a deadline). Then start rebuilding your self esteem and self image. Take your life back! You have to move from feeling sorry for yourself.

Focus on your goals, dreams, have new hobbies. Self evaluate what went wrong, what were the things you could have done better. What were the things that were beyond your control. And learn the lesson for a better relationship ahead.

Meet new people, tell your friends and family what you are going through for their support.

Remember, if the other person really valued you as much as you did, they would have tried to make things work out before they cut the lines. I'm sure you feel hurt, maybe they were not worthy of your love in the first place, because I bet you are willing to try to make things work, and they are not.

If you need someone to talk to, I am here for you. Just a beep away.

Can't wait for you to get over it and move on!

I would say you should fall in love. Love is beautiful!

First know if they are the right person to fall in love with. This is because when you hit the floor, it will end in tears.

But always be on the look out for when someone is no longer in love with you, or their love level has reduced. And try to talk things out. And if it's not working. You prepare yourself for a break up.

Since you are prepared, it would not be too hurting.

People change. Those that really want to be with you, will always go out of their way to do so, as you are willing to do for them.
