--- Navigating the 5 Stages of a Breakup: A Man's Roadmap to Healing

Breakups hit hard. Understanding the emotional rollercoaster is the first step towards healing. This roadmap outlines the common stages men go through and how ThriveLabs can support you at each step.

### Stage 1: Shock & Denial * What it feels like * Why it happens (biological response) * Initial coping strategies

### Stage 2: Grief & Pain * Acknowledging anger, sadness, despair * The importance of feeling, not suppressing * Healthy outlets: exercise, journaling

### (Stage 3: Potential Depression) * Recognizing the signs * When to seek professional help

### Stage 4: The Upward Turn * Glimmers of hope and rebuilding * Focusing on self-improvement (fitness, skills) * Seeing the relationship more rationally

### Stage 5: Acceptance & Moving Forward * Finding peace with the past * Building a fulfilling life independently * Readiness for the future

Remember, healing isn't linear. You might revisit stages, but progress is always possible.
