High blood pressure

Since our body and mind go through a lot during the post-breakup phase, we are more prone to having a high blood pressure. Linked with disturbed sleep patterns, high blood pressure also increases the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
Combat plan: Choose a healthy lifestyle. Meditation and a proper diet can help reducing the blood pressure. Avoid staying alone: It’s good to spend more time with friends.

Physical Pain

Heartbreak causes actual physical pain- stomach drop, nausea, headache, etc. Several studies reveal that when people were shown the pictures of their former partners, their emotions affected the same part of the brain which registers physical pain.
Combat plan: Go for a massage session at your favourite spa. You can also try some light stretches.

Weak immune system

Research shows that while going through the trauma of a breakup, your immune system weakens due to excessive stress and loneliness. This, in turn, can lead to cold and flu.
Combat plan: Consider including more vitamin C-rich foods in your diet. Fruits like oranges are a good option. Also, keep yourself stress -free by binging on comedy serials and movies.

Insomnia

This one’s the most common among all the other post-breakup symptoms. After a breakup you might find yourself spending nights tossing and turning without being able to shut your eyes. Well, this happens because your sleep hormones go for a toss when you are stressed out. 
Combat plan: Create a bedtime routine and follow it every night. Taking a warm shower before going to bed. Having chamomile tea will also help.   

Overwhelming emotions

Frequent mood bout is another post-breakup symptom one experiences. This is because you are emotionally fragile when your relationship goes haywire. Studies have also found out that you might feel angry most of the times after a breakup.
Combat plan: Join a group yoga class. It will not only help you calm down but also keep you motivated. Consult a psychological therapist if you lose control over yourself.
