1. Enjoy this period in your life, as hard as it is. The pain's going to be there, so just have fun.
2. Say yes to everything. This is a time of risk, so take advantage.
3. Go shopping. Get yourself some new clothes that personify the new single you.
4. See friends.
5. Take a trip.
6. Look at Facebook less.
7. Listen to your autonomous voice and what it's telling you. Also known as your inner voice or your instinct. It's probably going to be louder than usual, so it's easier to hear.
8. Don't be alone with the ex. He's unpredictable. You're not ready.
9. Cut off all communication for now. Although I didn't take the advice someone gave me to defriend him on FB.
10. Continue to reach out to people, they have information for you. It's been remarkable how much so many people have stories like mine and how much that helps to hear.
11. Start seeing your therapist again. You're going to need to talk about it, so pay someone to listen. The Southern California Counseling Center on Pico does a sliding scale.
12. Start working out hard, for you more than anything else. It will clear your mind.
13. Set a goal for the next marathon you're going to run.
14. Set a goal for everything.
15. Let people help you. Ask for help.
