But the intrusive ruminations and searing pain eventually subside? Do you feel normal and happy again in your day to day life?[/quote]

DP, not the PP you're responding to, but: If you truly can characterize your reactions as [i]intrusive[/i] ruminations and [i]searing[/i] pain, and the breakup wasn't only days ago, seriously consider therapy. You need to delve into why you're unable to function. Because intrusive thoughts and that level of pain are surely affecting your ability to function in the rest of your life. I'm not doing the knee-jerk "get therapy" answer that appears here so often; most of us are going to learn to live with a breakup without needing therapy. But if there truly are invasive thoughts crowding your mind, get someone objective to help you unravel them. It's what therapists are there for.

I pondered the end of a relationship for a long time afterward, and there was a lot to replay, since the end was bad and accelerated quickly (and I won't get into details other than: No abuse or affair, just things beyond control). But even then I was able to compartmentalize and set aside those thoughts to get things done in my day to day life. And eventually, yes, there was "normal and happy." But if you can't take steps forward eventually, and seem stuck, please, ask for help to get past it. [/quote]
