It’s been 7 weeks since the break up I still find myself crying and can’t seem to find any happiness I can distract myself but then I sit at work on my computer and just think about it all day long, I was driving into my small town with one of my friends and saw his truck freaked out then freaked out more when he started following me, I’m just lucky I had my friend with me because the second I saw him in my mirror behind me I had a full blown panic attack tears and shaking it’s the first time I’ve seen him since no contact. and I just can’t figure out why he followed me he had to reason to drive down that street or to be in my small town for that matter. just please tell me it gets easier

do you think he actually wanted your attention or do you think your nervous system is trying to make sense of something that scared you in the moment?
i’m a guy and yeah, it did get easier for me, just way slower than i wanted. what helped me most was accepting that seeing them again can reopen the wound for a bit, it doesn’t mean you’re back at square one.
i had a panic attack the first time i saw my ex’s car after no contact too, my body reacted before my brain even could. 7 weeks feels long when you’re suffering every day, but honestly it’s still SO fresh
Who wants to be with a man who causes that kind of reaction in you. Is that how you want to live. you may want to find professional help if your out of control, before you do something that will make your situation worse. It's not an easy thing to do when you're still emotionally tied to some. There maybe some guilt there too about the break up. hang on I promise it will get better, just don't give up on yourself. You sound like a good person. Are you sure you want him, I think you're better than that.
