<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Best Breakup Recovery Podcasts</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Breakups hurt so much because relationships are important to us. Attachment is part of our human design. When we lose the one we love, we experience all sorts of unpleasant emotions: sadness, guilt, anxiety, anger. Rejection can lead to low self-esteem and self-worth, and it is not uncommon to experience feelings of depression in the aftermath. The recovery process is not linear, but with some support, reflection, and self-forgiveness, you can survive this darker season of your life. Perhaps the hardest part about a breakup is losing the person you would typically go to for comfort. Many of us consider our partnership to also be our best friendship. One way to access a community of support and professional advice is to listen to one of these five breakup recovery podcasts. </p>
