Believe me I went through the same thing a few months back!
You need some time to be upset and grieve for the relationship youve lost, you nead to distance yourself from her and all that reminds you of her, although you may feel like clinging on to things from the past, you need to try to move on.
It does take a long time, no matter your age. Your true and best friends should be able to see your situation and be able to understand what your going through, Im sure you wont have lost them for good.
I think the best thing to try is to put on a slight act, if you start to act possitive, and act as though you are not so down your start to eventually feel that way for real, try changing stuff, a new hair style, new bedroom, joing a gym - get super fit anything to make a change and to move things on a bit. I even moved house at the end of my 5year relationship - gave me something to think about other than the ex if nothing else!
It will take time to truely move on and you dont have to straight away, but do try, and until you feel strong enough to take a step foreward from your sadness, be with your friends and family, dont push them away, they WILL help you.
There is help out there if you feel you cant talk to the people you are close to. people like the Samaritans are avaliable 24/7 and can be contacted by email as well as by phone.
all the best!
