Can't do this anymore!

[ferngully]

I seriously can't deal with this anymore. An entire night spent dreaming of my ex and getting back together and having intense makeup sex. Its killing me. I have to admit it. I want to try again. I really do. But what can I do about that??? Other than have my subconscious * * * * me over all the time and waste away inside, living completely depressed and upset? I thought I was over him. I really truly thought it was for the best and I was moving on. And now I can't get him out of my mind. Ever. HELP, please, anybody. If the only way to fix this is to blow my brains out, I'll do it. I just can't take this anymore.

keep your brains! you will need them when you are feeling better to ask yourself, "what was i thinking?!"

The more you struggle to not think about something, the harder it will be to do.

 

Example: don't think about apples.

 

First thing that pops into your mind?

 

It's important to be able to face the thoughts when they come, deal with them, and move on to something else. If you make thinking about him forbidden territory or worry every time you have a dream that you've erased all your hard work at moving on, then you'll accomplish nothing but making things harder for yourself.
