PUT. THAT. PHONE. DOWN. Force it till you make it

Author

I realised I relapsed the most when I stalked him, when I keep on waiting for him to up whatsapp status.

But when I put my phone down, I painted my walls, I re-decor my house, sometimes when I do these stuff I think about him.

But the feelings is way way WAYYY worst when I stalk him. Trust me, stalking your ex won't get you anywhere.

agreed. the two times I checked are the times that sent me back to feeling like the day we ended things. found out things I didn’t want to know 💔

what’s been the hardest part for you to stop checking… the silence, the curiosity, or the hope they’ll post something “for you”?

I think the 'caring' part. I cared A LOTTTT about him. For example, I would be worried if he's doing okay in new workplace? Is the workplace toxic like from his past? I cared a lot, so I need an answer whether he's doing okay or not.

One day I realised if I care, that's mean he's still in my heart and mind. So I asked God to remove careness from my heart and here I am, stoic. I don't care if he's doing good or not 😂

you’re so right. the phone makes the spiral ten times worse. when i keep my hands busy, my brain gets a little break from the obsession.

i used to sit there refreshing my ex’s insta like it was a full time job. every time i stopped and did literally anything else, it hurt less. stalking just reopened the wound for me too.
