“Getting over it” comes by surrendering to the healing process–letting the memories come up, expressing the emotions, facing the lies & nurturing yourself. It’s common to try to “get over it” by putting on a happy face & avoiding the memories through some addiction. It’s hard work to avoid the memories & it’s hard work to heal, but avoidance makes things worse & facing them makes them better.
