I so sorry to hear of your pain. The Bible teaches that when a man and a woman become one through the 'act' of marriage, they become one flesh. You are still one with your ex. That's why you are having trouble now. I would encourage you to pray and ask God to break the soul tie that you have with him/her. You can pray something simple like, "Dear Lord, though Jesus, please break the soul tie I have with my ex."
Then give yourself time to heal. I feel certain that God has seen your broken heart and is moved. Please know that He loves you with an everlasting love. He will never leave you.
You are going to make it. Pray and ask God to guide you one step at a time. Also, cast your burden on Him for He cares for you. Pray this:
Dear Lord,
I cast my heartache, sadness and pain on you. I don't want to carry this around with me any more. I give it all to you. Please lift it from me. -- In Jesus Name!
You may have to pray this prayer many times, but you are going to be set free.
Please, do not take your life. Please allow time and God to heal your heart. I know that you are hurting. But others have been where you are, including me, and have walked, one step at a time, out of the darkness.
You will too. You are going to make it.

Here's what I recommend to you:
- Ten.Days.of.Encouragement.SIGN.UP!
- We need other believers for encouragement. Find a church home. See if you can find a small Bible study of people in your age range. Call some of the bigger churches in your area and see if they have anything to offer for your age group. This could be a home Bible study or a Sunday school class.
- Listen to inspirational music. There's a lot of Christian music in different styles. Maybe you've got a great Christian radio station in your area or maybe you can find one on the web that plays a style of Christian music that speaks to you like http://www.klove.com/listen/. You can also go to a Christian bookstore and listen to their CDs until you find something that helps you to feel worshipful.
- Read the book, Purpose Driven Life. This is a great Bible study and you need to have the Word in your life every day.
- Take time to read the Bible. If you don't have a Bible, there are versions available on the web that you can download.
- Read the instant download, Grief Relief.
- Listen to free, encouraging downloads at www.BestCDDownloads.com
Don't do anything to harm yourself. You are so loved. Please give your situation time, please allow God time to move. He may be waiting for you to give in to Him, to say, God I will trust you, no matter what. Try trusting God and see what will happen.
Also, please go in for a medical checkup and tell your doctor about how you feel emotionally. Your doctor may have medications that can help you get over this 'bump' in the road.
Also, I highly recommend counseling. You may find a pastor in your church or other local church or some other professional who will understand and help you with your struggles.
WE ARE PRAYING FOR YOU!
Blessings,
Linda
