Why Does Heartbreak Hurt So Bad?

from Brokenhearted · host Althea Branton

Ending a romantic or intimate relationship sucks.  You feel like you've been hit in the chest with a sledgehammer.  Everything feels like effort - like you're walking through sticky tar.  You just can't see the light even though it's directly in your eyeball.  Then you feel like that person was it - there's no other person in the world that could ever fit the bill.  It's so difficult to focus on anything much less your own self and well-being.   I break down 4 reasons why heartbreak hurts so bad (badly if you wanna correct my grammar).    I want to hear from you - why do you think heartbreak hurts so bad?  Leave a comment at www.altheabranton.com/podcast.
