And it's so true that the impact of heartbreak can suddenly reassert itself out of nowhere... But not forever... I think this is a great metaphor.

It took about 9 months from beginning to end (or at least until I moved 3000 miles away). I kept thinking of it as a reverse pregnancy. In the beginning, everyone can see your condition, they look out for you, tend to you, take care of you. Maybe you are physically in pain, counting the minutes or hours of crying, seeing if it was shorter or longer than before, you can't eat, can't sleep. Later, you still know how you feel but it's not as visible to others. They might not know why you can't do things you used to be able to do since it doesn't "look" like there is anything wrong with you. And even 9 months later, its even not as noticeable to you, but occasionally will overwhelm you and stop you in your tracks. I went through a terrible breakup and heart break in my 20’s.
