I wish I had the ability to just turn on and off. To use people and then discard without a thought and pick up the next one.
I wish my mind could change stories for my sanity... .
But I'm not built that way and I'm broken now
It was a ldr for 5 months with my discard coming on a trip with her overseas
A few emails from her after that which I didn't respond
Until early Jan and then I bit
I heard what I wanted ... .I love you I've never stopped etc
A few weeks of texts and phone calls and now nothing...
I just want to die - thoughts of her haunt me during my waking and sleeping hours
Each thought cuts like a thousand knives
I don't have it in me to endure this ... I read stories of people who are years out and still think of their ex
It's like a chronic disease you can manage the symptoms but never heal
I've been in therapy since October I've exercised meditated spent time with friends but it doesn't help the thoughts are always there
Dreams are the worst waking up with the terrible ache
Time to get affairs in order - will, cremation service and arrangements for my dog
I only hope her replacements are stronger than I was
I've been trying to reply to your post since I first saw it but finding the right words is difficult.
I could have written it myself, I did the will and everything but couldn't do the last bit.
I am 8 months in and still feel like crap but I'm still alive, If I can you can.
I've just got back from the pub which I used to enjoy but I was bored and miserable. People say I'm not me any more and they are correct.
I'm lonely in a crowd, that crowd are my friends I've known for years but they feel like strangers.
YOU are doing better than me by seeing a therapist and meditating, I do nothing.
As I said everything I did before is not the same now, I'm lost but still breathing... .I don't know how or why, it's all emptiness.
I know how you feel I feel it everyday, as you every waking minute and in my dreams. I wake up with a panic attack and my guts churning it's a nightmare.
Just get through the day and the next, they all seem the same just one long lonely existence but I've gone 8 months and not died.
You can too.
I hope this helps.
