His birthday is in 5 days and it is becoming more and more difficult to not reach out. I am trying to just get through it and hope that after his birthday the urge goes away, however this is so hard. I am super emotional, super sad, and all I think about is him.

I made it. still going strong
have you found anything that helps a bit when the urge to reach out hits, even for a few minutes? sometimes small tricks help hold the line
try distracting yourself with little things you love, even a walk or music can help a tiny bit until the urge fades. it’s normal to feel sad right now
omg yes i’ve been there 😭 his birthday always hit me the hardest, felt like my heart was being ripped out. you’re not weak for feeling this
it was my birthday recently, and I saw it as a new beginning. hopefully you can see that once it’s his birthday, “let go of what doesn’t serve you” xx
I understand, maybe it would be a good idea to call your family or friends, explain to them whats happening and that you need their support on the day to keep you away from contacting him? do you have somsone who could do that for you?
also, imagine different scenarios of what could happen if you rechead out: would he reply, ignore you or maybe sent a picture with his new girlfriend? think about what the worst scenario could be and what would you feel. the chance is that the real scenario is worse than the worst one in your head.is it worth wasting all those days you stayed amazing and strong?
Im cheering for you, remember you're not alone 💪
