Symptoms of a Broken Heartand the effects on
your body
Before we tackle the symptoms of a broken heart,
lets just consider a typical scenario which may
lead to a broken heart For a moment it feels
like the ground opened up beneath your feet. You
look at your partner completely bewildered.
W-what? you ask softly, not sure if you have
understood correctly. Your partner swallows
hard, and hardly dare look into your eyes. You
feel lightheaded, afraid to hear those words
again. The words that will break your heart. I
want to split up Love is beautiful. But it also
has a price tag. If you have loved, then at some
point it may ask you to pay a price for it your
grief. Love can give you the feeling that you can
handle everything, but heartbreak can bring
about the opposite feeling. Fortunately, you are
not alone in this feeling. In this article we
look at some of the symptoms of a broken heart,
which is brought about when we
Love
2
Some will probably downplay it before they give
in, but secretly we all want it love. Not
surprising at all, it is one of the fundamental
needs of mankind. Something we all want and
need. The feeling that someone cares about you,
and the knowledge that you have someone that
would go through fire for you. Why else would so
many TV shows, films, books, songs, paintings,
etc. all about love, be made? Why else would
someone voluntarily subject himself completely,
as long as he/she can only receive a pittance of
love from the object of his/her affections? Love
is so much more powerful than you may
realize. Love can change the world.
Unfortunately, love can also be evil. Take a look
at the Investigation Discovery channel. Titles
like Scorned Love Kills and Wicked Attraction
stand out. Love is so powerful that people
sometimes cannot control themselves when they
fall in love. And especially when something, or
rather someone, stands in their way. A broken
heart If your heart is broken, it may cause you
to lose your grip on reality. Heartbreak can make
you believe things and see the world in a
different light, which are many times more
negative than you would normally consider them.
All negative thoughts I will never be happy
again, The world perishes come from the power
that love has over you. But before you become
completely pessimistic this does not mean that
you can never overcome your heartbreak. If you
do not do anything, your life indeed will spiral
downwardsYou need to fight back, so you can get
stronger. You will then approach love in a
different way, more thoughtfully and bravely
although that will take some time.

Symptoms of a broken heart Until you get over
your heartbreak, you will for sure still
experience one or more of the following symptoms
of a broken heart for a period of time Concern
and restlessness When you suffer from a broken
heart, you can carry a lot of worries with you,
and become very restless and desperate. You
constantly fight with yourself, causing your
heartbeat to rise, which can lead to trembling,
shortness of breath and anxiety. You can also
more often experience tense muscles, headaches,
sweating and nausea. All of these aforementioned
are symptoms of a broken heart, but symptoms are
not limited to these. Insomnia Insomnia is also
one of the most tell-tale symptoms of a broken
heart. The insomnia that you experience as a
result of a broken heart is connected to your
restlessness. You struggle to find peace because
of fear that rakes through your body, the
physical symptoms of a broken heart you
experience and a change in your sleeping
environment (no partner, possibly another bed,
etc.) Illness and a suppressed immune system
4
When you have a broken heart, it could lead to
fever, problems with your gastrointestinal tract
and a general feeling of sickness. This sounds
far-fetched, but is actually quite logical. When
you experience broken heart anxiety, you expose
your body to high levels of stress. You produce
extra cortisol, the anti-stress hormone. If this
stays in your bloodstream for a long time, it
will cause your immune system to deteriorate.
This is often accompanied by a decreased
appetite, so that your body attracts viruses much
more easily. Actual physical pain Many people
experience real physical symptoms of a broken
heart. Think of chest pain, abdominal pain or
feeling as if your heart is really hurting.
Research has shown that this pain really exists,
and is one of the signs of a broken
heart. Romantic rejection activates the same
areas in your brain that respond to physical pain.
Interesting fact did you know that there is even
a syndrome in which people experience chest and
heart pain and failure as a result of a broken
heart? This is known as the broken heart
syndrome (defined by the dictionary as a
condition characterized by sudden dysfunction of
the left ventricle of the heart, accompanied by
symptoms resembling those of
5
a heart attack but occurring in the absence of
significant coronary artery disease. Typically
attributed to stressful events, the condition is
usually transient). It therefore imitates
symptoms of a heart attack, including shortness
of breath, chest pain and heart failure. Weight
gain or loss Another of the symptoms of a broken
heart is that you either gain or lose a lot of
weight. Being one of the effects of a broken
heart, there is no real standard of weight change
due to a broken heart. It depends on how you
deal with (sad) life challenges. Some find
comfort and distraction in food, while others
cannot even think of eating because of the stress
that rages through their bodies. Depression That
almost every person with a broken heart
sometimes feel down, will not come as a
surprise. But did you know that heartbreak can
actually lead to depression? This is mainly due
to your self-confidence. Being rejected by your
partner can greatly undermine your
self-confidence. When you have low self-esteem,
you are twice as likely to suffer from
depression which is one of the most common
symptoms of a broken heart Withdrawal
symptoms Love is very powerful. Did you know that
it is so powerful that it can be considered an
addiction? That means you can experience
withdrawal symptoms after a relationship break-
up. If your body is used to love, it will show
symptoms of withdrawal just like when someone
suddenly stops taking drugs. Not to worry though,
just as drug addicts get rid of their drug
addiction, you too will overcome your addiction
to love (and to your ex).

Questions about your own identity When you
experience a downright horrendous break-up, you
may find yourself in a position where you are
starting to wonder who you really are. A
relationship can make you think differently
about yourself. When that relationship no longer
exists, you just do not know who you really are
any more. Relationship break-ups can therefore
provoke an existential crises, especially when
you have been pushed aside by your ex. You stay
behind with a lot of questions, because you
cannot understand how it all so suddenly came to
an end. Were you perhaps not loving enough? Was
that person just not the true one? So you have to
rediscover yourself, as it were.
The duration of heartbreak But how long does
heartbreak last? While this is not one of the
symptoms of a broken heart, it is a question
almost all who suffer from a broken heart asks.
You are cringing about the fact that your
relationship is over, yet still this question
keep mauling in your head When will this
miserable pain finally be over? Some people says
the recovery time from a break-up is about half
the time your relationship lasted, another
person thinks it should last a month. But can you
really set a time for the duration of
heartbreak? Especially when you consider that
every situation is different, and that there may
be other circumstances that can lead to an
extension of the pain.

A survey conducted on 155 young adults resulted
in the following for 71 of the group it took
about 3 months (11 weeks) before they could focus
on the positive aspects of the break-up. At this
point the participants felt they had grown as a
person and in a place where they could set goals
again. But pay attention this remains an
average. Everyone heals at his/her own pace!
The difference between dumping someone and being
dumped by another person Do not for one minuet
think the dumper has it much easier than the
dumped one. He/she may also need 11 weeks before
they recover from the break-up. Of course there
is a difference. For the one being dumped, the
break-up is much more like a blow. The dumper
has had more preparation time. If you yourself
are the one who has put an end to your
relationship, this will not come as a surprise.
It is precisely the person who cuts the ties, who
carries an extra load of pain in the form of
guilty feelings. You feel guilty about hurting
your (ex-) partner so much. You are essentially
the one who gave up the one who determined that
your relationship was not worth fighting for. You
fought so hard to get more out of it, but you
still had to make this decision. Symptoms of a
Broken Heart How men and women respond In
addition to differences between the dumped and
the dumper, there are also differences between
men and women where the experience of heartbreak
is concerned. Researchers have asked 6,000
people from all over the world about the
intensity of their heartbreak. The main findings
of their research are as follows Women
experience higher levels of emotional and
physical pain because they are much
8
more (biologically) invested in their
relationship than men. Men find it much more
difficult to recover from a break-up, and largely
never even completely recover. Men feel the loss
of their partner on a deep level and for a very
long period of time. At this time he only begins
to realize that he has to start all over again to
get back what he lost, or that the loss is
irreplaceable. The last finding, however, is
something that actually applies to both men and
women we are inclined to think that the person
we lost cannot be replaced. But perhaps the
fact that this penetrates relatively later in
men makes women recover more quickly from a
break-up. Women immediately feel the pain, but
they also immediately start to work hard on their
recovery from a break-up by addressing the
symptoms of a broken heart one by one.
