I feel absolutely shattered and like my world came to an end. My boyfriend of 5 years dumped me and said he didn't love me anymore and needed to make things work for himself. I don't feel like anything I can do will help and I'll always feel this way. I'm not used to this hookup culture and don't want to sleep with someone before I know them. I'm so lost and scared :( he was my everything and I feel broken. But there's nothing else I can do.
I was there through everything for him. We had a rocky relationship because he struggles with addiction but now that he's actually bettering his life, he doesn't want to date me.
Plus we have been long distance for about 3 years and it was finally gonna be long distance no longer. How can he be so sure that he wants this? He said he hopes I find peace with it.
I feel severely depressed and like I won't find someone for me when I have so much love to give :( sorry for this rant. I just don't know where else to turn (link)

You two were together for a really long time, of course you're going to be hurt and upset, it's normal.
Don't chase after him, don't try to communicate with him at all. He will realize what he lost eventually because you were there for him through everything.
I don't agree with the adviser below about there being someone else. I mean there could be the chance, but I wouldn't jump to that conclusion.
He may have someone else, he may just believe it's the best thing for him and he's not in love.
Whatever the reason is, you're right that there isn't anything you can do.
Break ups are a good time to find yourself.
A lot of people lose themselves in the other person when they're in a relationship. That's what you did. It's not a good thing to do and that's why you're feeling ten times worse.
Either way, that's over and the next time you're in a relationship, you know not to get lost in someone.
Right now, this is you time. You're going to take care of yourself and let yourself heal. Don't worry about finding someone else. That's not something that should be on your mind right now.
Try new things, work out, go out with friends and just do things that will make you happy. Cry it out, then it's time to move on.
