I'm really sick in bed, it's my birthday tomorrow and I miss him and want to take a stab at guessing his email address which I've deleted n telling him I just want to be cuddling up to him. I'm writing this instead.
Gosh. Stupid flu and stupid BPD.
No contact no contact no contact. Mantra.
Use this time to read all you can to rest, stay hydrated, read about BPD and narcissism, journal, pray and write a list of of the ___ty things your ex has done to help you stay your ground during this very vulnerable time.
Being sick sucks but trust... .your ex will not make you feel better in the long run.
You're experiencing withdrawal feelings and this is quite common; especially when we're feeling lonely. But it will pass... .
Missing my ex sometimes felt like being kicked in the stomach by a horse... .the pain... .unbearable at times... .but then I'd write about the full truth... .and how he dropped me so easily to try out new supply... .and the lies upon lies... .going back would only soothe me for 4 seconds... .then it would be hell on earth again. Contacting them would be like taking tylenol for open heart surgery.
A year from now... .you'll be stronger, wiser, and feeling more empowered. But for now just stay in the moment... .
Feel better.
PS. I use a Neti Pot for my sinus infections and it works wonders for the nasal passages.
