I'm feeling a lot better now, I thought I'd sob for hours when she said no contact but honestly I feel a lot better with the space? I don't feel like I shld text her and ask what she's up to or how she is bc ik she doesn't wanna hear from me, which is bittersweet.
I talked to an online therapist and they helped me quite a lot, listened to me talking through it without saying "it's for the best, ygs need it" and they gave me some tips on how to cope with when I get emotional again!
hopefully this means things are gonna get easier?

the space is doing what it’s supposed to. no chasing, no constant urge. it shifts the focus back on you, and that’s why it feels lighter.
that same relief when i didn’t have to think about reaching out anymore. it gave me space to breathe. glad you found someone to just listen, that made a big difference for me too.
when my ex told me no contact i thought i’d break down. i waited for the crash but it never came. instead i felt weirdly empty, like my brain was finally quiet but not in a good way.
This is exactly how it feels, I feel like I shld cry but I can't it's just a sad quiet lonely feeling
I want to feel that way too. Right now, it hurts so much.
I get it Hun it's so brutal but once you realize it's not the end of the world it starts to feel a bit lighter :)
