week three was when the shock wore off for me and the reality hit like a brick wall, i remember just staring at my floor for hours wishing he would text. sitting through that specific wave of missing them takes every single ounce of strength you have.

what got me through those brutal days in the first month was giving myself permission to just survive the next hour, no big goals, just drinking water and getting to the end of the day.

Yeah, ir doesn't help that I am currently unemployed (for two more weeks). I just have unlimited time to think. It goes ever so slowly

I'm barley getting to day 3...3 weeks seems so far away I can't even fathom that far away. the stomach pit pain is the worst right now.

Yah shout out to all those people who survived week three and beyond. I broke no contact on the last day of my week three streak and honestly it was really hard. But this time, I’m not looking back. I’m going to do everything I can to keep going.I have embarrassed myself enough. I’m done.

Thank you for this post. I’m motivated and I’m right behind you. πŸ™β€οΈβ€πŸ©Ή

I’m so grateful for this app. I only discovered it 7 days ago and I honestly wish I had known about it from the very first day my heart was broken because mmm, I struggled and went through hell. But never again because i have got you guys now. πŸ«‚

So shout-out to you too! πŸ’ͺπŸ«‚β£οΈ

yes! we got this! Psychologically speaking, week 3 is the peak/hardest part. All the way through week 6. We just need to lock in πŸ’–

I dreamt about him 🀣🀣 He was giving me his phone to check if there were any girls’ names there. He even said, You should stop your insecurities. What the f*** guys? 🀣🀣 What does that even mean?

But guess what? I just told myself it was a stupid dream and dreams should remain in dreamland. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚β€οΈβ€πŸ©Ή am not going back.
