broken
Taken from wikipedia....
A broken heart (or heartbreak) is a common metaphor used to describe the intense emotional pain one feels after losing a loved one, through death, divorce, or other means as in breaking up with someone or having your partner move away. It is an extremely old and widespread metaphor that dates back to at least the time of the Ramayana where it was commonly used .
Heartbreak is usually associated with losing a spouse or loved one, though losing a parent, child, pet, or close friend can also "break one's heart".The symptoms of a "broken heart" can manifest themselves through psychological pain but for many the effect is physical. Although the experience is regarded commonly as indescribable, the following is a list of common symptoms that occur:
- A perceived tightness of the chest, similar to an anxiety attack
- Stomach ache and/or loss of appetite
- Partial or complete insomnia
- Anger
- Shock
- Nostalgia
- Apathy (loss of interest)
- Feelings of loneliness

- Loss of self-respect and/or self-esteem
- Medical or psychological illness (e.g. depression)
