How to get through the 1st night of a devastating break up:

1. DO NOT SLEEP ALONE. Crash on the couch of a dear friend. If you're me, cuddle up in bed with a girlfriend. Being alone will cause way more emotional stress than your body can handle. You need distraction. You need laughter. You need company.

2. CRY. Overflow it, dude. Just lose your shit weeping. Cry until your head hurts, then take some Aleve and breathe for a little bit.

3. REMEMBER TO EAT. If you can find your comfort/hang over food, engorge yourself. You won't feel like eating but trying to keep something in your stomach will help keep up the strength you'll lose from all the crying.

4. CALL A FRIEND. Preferably a good listener who is also good at keeping his/her mouth shut. You don't need input right now, you just need company.
