Betrayal of a friend is one of the worst blows that fate can bring down on you. This feeling cannot be compared with other mental anguish. According to statistics, one in four divorced people get married again. And a person who has been betrayed by a close friend, in most cases, withdraws into himself and does not trust anyone else.
Instructions
Step 1
When faced with betrayal, you probably wonder: "Why did this happen to me?" Answer options may be different. Either you are not good at understanding people, or you are too gullible (but do not overdo it with self-flagellation).
Try to assess the situation from a philosophical point of view. Perhaps fate is sending you trials to temper your spirit.
Step 2
Any of your assumptions will do, except for the following: “All people are selfish egoists”, “I have no happiness in life - no family, no friends, no career,” “Nothing, I will be more careful in the future! From now on, no friends! If you have any of these thoughts, nip them in the bud. Transformed into subconscious attitudes, they will not allow you to get out of depression.
Step 3
After experiencing a friend's betrayal, you are in a state of shock. This is due to the fact that a strong friendship over the years has become one of the foundations of your worldview. And when the load-bearing wall collapses, the whole building begins to sway.
Step 4
To get through this stress faster and easier, do not withdraw into yourself. Refer to the most archaic and sacred value, which is another pillar of your understanding of the world. This value is your family.
Step 5
Pay attention to your parents, for whom you always do not have enough time due to constant employment. Parental love and support are powerful emotional feelings. They will help you overcome discouragement and disappointment in people.
Step 6
If you already have children of your own, try to spend more time with them. After all, for them you are the main person in life. Children's love is the strongest, most disinterested and sincere. Often, only she is able to find the key to the heart, closed from pain and betrayal.
Step 7
And finally, and most importantly, remember that there is always one friend with you who will not betray, deceive or leave you all your life. This friend is yourself. Have you ever wondered how many difficult situations you experienced inside yourself, how many fears you overcame with your own efforts. How many unique ideas your own mind has given you. Feel yourself a self-sufficient person and you will be able to survive the betrayal of a friend, and the collapse of hopes, and other blows of fate.
