i feel your strength in the way you're talking about this, but can i ask, do you think you'd feel a little safer in your healing if your cousin stopped sending you updates about him for now?

getting blindsided by little updates about my ex when i was finally having a few okay days, and that heavy feeling came right back like i hadn't made any progress at all. you really don't deserve to keep getting pulled back into his life like that.

This is part of what no contact is supposed to protect us from. This type of info won’t hurt you when you’re healed, but it’s too soon. politely let the people you love know that you can’t handle updates and snippets of info about your ex right now.
