The short answer? It varies 2-3 years. Of course, this is an average for long-term serious relationships of 10-15 years. I don't believe in formulas or calculations since everybody heals at different speeds. Also, by Confidence building post-breakup, you will put yourself in the best possible position to become a better version of yourself faster. Based on my research & experience, I've found that every year someone has been in a committed relationship, about 2.5 months of recovery are required. It is important not to stay idle but to put in the work. Work on yourself!
