Title: I feel like I'm finally becoming detached Post by: Shedd on April 17, 2018, 09:25:15 PM So I haven't even had the urge to unblock her from FB since her birthday, and it's been over a month!
I have been focusing on my art, my house, and looking for a new job which is just keeping me insanly busy! My thoughts of her are weakening. I feel like I'm finally becoming detached. Hope it stays this way. Again, want to thank this board for being able to keep me sane during all the struggles. I'm so very proud of myself!

Just chiming in to see how you're keeping. I'm glad to know that you've been keeping busy. It does seem that your business has helped you stay focused on other things and that itself has helped you detached a little more. We're here to cheer you on your course of recovery.

Detaching is a gradual process, and for me, the litmus test would be when i'm no longer busy and 'idling' would thoughts of her come back? That would perhaps be another good indicator of how far we're in on our "moving on" process. Takecare and keep steady, Spero Title: Re: I feel like I'm finally becoming detached Post by: heartandwhole on April 18, 2018, 06:09:45 AM Yes, Shedd! |iiii I'm happy for you. Keep focusing on you and your wellbeing... .before you know it, thoughts of her will be few and far between.
And when thoughts do come up, and the feelings that go with them, just know that if you feel and breathe through them, they can be gone in minutes. Keep us posted. It's always nice to hear good news. Good luck finding a new job! heartandwhole Title: Re: I feel like I'm finally becoming detached Post by: Insom on April 18, 2018, 10:16:07 AM Yay, Shedd! It sounds like you're doing great. FWIW, for me, desire to address my past comes and goes. We're still here when you want to talk.
