Hi John,

You say “Today is a tough one. Don’t have much days like this anymore but damn.” So yesterday was a tough day for you. You couldn’t get your mind off your ex. But most days aren’t like that for you anymore. This means you’re making progress! It doesn’t happen overnight, as you know. It takes time. You’re now having fewer days where you can’t get your mind off her! Valora said it perfectly: “…just know you’ll likely feel better tomorrow or once you get your mind off of it.” Become aware of the negative thoughts that pop into your head. They’re just thoughts. Don’t engage them; just let them pass. Let them go.

You’re doing so well! I’m serious, you really are doing so much better than when you started this thread. You should be very proud of your progress. I am! Keep moving forward.

B
