I feel the need to break no contact. That urge is strong. I avoid it but end up breaking the no contact. its a loop. I genuinely want to follow this and have a streak for not contacting but somehow i keep going back. any advice?

i finally stopped making the goal “never contact them again” and just focused on getting through that one urge without acting on it. i'd give myself an hour, put my phone somewhere else, and usually the intensity had dropped enough that i could leave it alone.
you reach out, what are you usually hoping you'll get from them in that moment, reassurance, a reply, closure, or just that feeling of being connected again?
i used to break no contact whenever the urge got too loud, then hate myself for it afterward. the hardest part was accepting that wanting to reach out didn't mean i actually needed to.
Don’t do it! Please imagine the growth and the benefits that are awaiting for you on the other end. It will lead you to secure, genuine and lasting happiness. Contact will only give you a short release and then you get reminded of the pain. Let some time go over it. Go through the withdrawal so you can trust on the choices your hearts leads you to.
just think about how the outcome is going to be if you turn back always remember what will happen if you turn back and why u broke up in the first place
