block him and delete him from your life (photos, social media, throw out all his gifts and anything that reminds you of him, etc)
get therapy, focus on getting out of this depressive state, reevaluate with your therapist what steps you should take to prevent yourself from spiraling into another depressive episode in the future. create a support network for yourself. seems like you have a supportive mother and friends who care about you! these should be the first steps.
focus on yourself. it's the beginning of the year- what do you want to achieve this year? how do you want to improve yourself? think about your leveling up goals in mental health, wellbeing, career, hobbies! read the FDS book.
only start dating again when you are in a better place mentally. being unwell mentally makes you a target for manipulation and abuse in a relationship.

i hope you are getting the help you need and are feeling better soon!

You need to help yourself first. Help yourself by showing up and being available to yourself first. Validate yourself first. Work on yourself first. He has got to go and you need to realize that first before anything can change.

Checking into a psyc ward might do wonders for you, if you have a good one around. They can get you medicated, do intensive therapy, and come up with an action plan for when you are released. If this is not possible, I HIGHLY reccommend the DBT workbook, it almost completely solved my suicidal ideation and helped me create positive coping strategies. Sending love and prayers your way

I started working on the Dialetic workbook. It helps, but I'm still very depressed and I can't believe he'd drop me at my lowest. Then I miss him again...

Good idea, luckily the greedy bastard only ever bought me one thing. I've thrown it all out. I'm gettibg therapy, medication increase, i begged him to see that as proof of me getting better and leveling uo but hes still mad at me.

This year i mostly just want to get sane and get a new job, i'm 32 but i'm tired of men right now, it always ends with them chewing me out.
