Distraction is a great tool. Do whatever helps you take your mind off it best. I find getting outside for a bit helpful too. I’m so sorry you’re suffering. Hang in there, breathe, and never lose hope as this will pass.
Do you have professional and friend/family support? Use as much as you can. Being alone for too long makes things worse. Even hit the shops if you can just to be around people.
