Should breakups be treated like an illness? The Cheap Chat gang are joined by psychologist and author of ‘How to Fix A Broken Heart’, Guy Winch, who breaks down the science as to why you’re still addicted to your ex and how to kick the habit. Guy also explains why breakups should be regarded as as mental health issue and why your employer should give you sick leave if you’re suffering from distress.

Elsewhere, the Cheap Chat gang put your questions to the expert from ‘how to deal with an ex that’s moved on too quickly?’ to ‘When is too early to start dating?’ and more.

Join the Rume, Nush and Carlotta every Wednesday as they dive into more text messages based on real dilemmas.
