Coping Strategies?

I never expected meeting someone could turn my world upside down like this. It’s not my experience of dating or relationships at all.

The instant and intense connection left me breathless and yearning for more. Now that we’re apart, I feel like a part of me is missing, and the pain is almost unbearable. I’ve tried everything to move on - therapy, meditation, even dating other people (or trying to… but it couldn’t compare) but nothing seems to fill this void. How do you cope with the absence of someone who feels like an extension of your soul?

You’re not the only one feeling like this.

Accept the intensity of your feelings, don’t fight them. Then, channel that energy into personal growth and creative pursuits. Not only will this help you cope with the short term pain… it helps you do what it takes to get to reunion.

I know…

In theory… I know this. I just needed to vent… it’s been a day. Nothing even happened I just struggle sometimes.

Days like this can often be a sign that your twin is doing the work themselves. Vent away, but try (I know this is easier said than done) to keep doing the work. There might be an opportunity here.

And once in a while it is also fine to chill and watch Netflix from bed.

:: I hope so as this past week has been a weird struggle for me as well, feeling drained of all energy. I am being kind to myself, still keeping up my inner work but it’s felt like a slog lately.

The TF path is difficult, but we face that pain for a reason.

In the dark moments of separation just remember you are never really alone. The collective is there for you and you are always connected to your TF.

You learn something in these moments. About yourself and your path.

I understand the pain you’re feeling - that sense of incompleteness is all too familiar for most of us at one time or another.

Trust in your process.

You are not alone in this and you do have this.

Missing my twin flame feels like part of me is gone, but I’m learning to nurture myself, find joy in small moments, and trust that our connection transcends physical separation even when it hurts like hell… which is almost all of the time.

Your feelings are real and valid.

The best thing you can do for you (and for your TF) is not to try to 'cope' but to embrace the pain and see where it stems from. Feelings of neglect or a fear of trusting? They are a mirror of our own insecurities.

I used to worry so much about my twin and our connection, but now I’m learning to trust the process. When I quiet my mind and listen to my heart, I feel our bond is unbreakable. No matter what happens in the 3D, I know what is in our path.

I wish we had an easy answer for you here, but nobody ever said this would be easy when we agreed to the soul contract we are on.

Trust in divine timing. It’s okay to be overwhelmed; your connection is unique and powerful, even when it feels confusing or painful. Trust your intuition and allow yourself to feel deeply without judgment. Focus on your own growth and healing, and know that whatever happens, this experience is shaping you in profound ways.

Stay open to the lessons and love that come your way, but don’t lose sight of your own worth in the process. Your path is your own, and it’s okay if it doesn’t look like anyone else’s.

when the longing feels unbearable, i sit by the ocean and let the waves remind me of our connection’s ebb and flow. it’s comforting to think that just like the tide, we’ll find our way back to each other.

I know it’s obvious advice but have you tried journaling your way through this? It helps me so much when I get my thoughts down on paper.
