When you are going through a major change, you are going to feel more stress and tension than usual. Other parts of your life may be affected, including your job and friendships.

Two important things to remember is:
A. Now is NOT the time to push your friends and loved ones away, and
B. Give yourself a well deserved break.

Regarding "A," this means that stay in contact with the ones that love you. I know it is easier to crawl into a hole and block out social contact, but this is counter-productive. When you are over the heartache (which you will be) those friends may not be around waiting for you. Sad, but true.

As far as "B," is concerned, give yourself a break. This could be a day at the park, a massage, or a frivolous shopping trip. It does not matter. You deserve to pamper yourself, and these acts of self kindness will nurture your soul.

So, two things to remember. Love yourself, and love those that love you.
