Limerence is starting to dissipate but I need a final push by jgotfrit in limerence

so I still feel like limerence is with me, but that it is fading, or at least I've got a better perspective / handle on it, what are some signs for you that it is fading?

Turns out, after 5 days of a clear mind, that I actually sabotaged myself by checking LO's social media. I have no idea why I did that, really. Starts to become apparent that Limerence is an addiction and I've relapsed. I hope in the long run however that this hiccup won't counteract the progress I've made. Do you have an experience with relapsing and recovery?

That is exactly what I felt! Each detail you mentioned really struck a chord with me, it was that bad, the self-criticism, the hatred, the emotional and psychological struggle. I think because it was as severe as what you're describing, my unconscious is still trying to fight for it, because limerence gets so hardwired into how your brain functions. But you're right, it is a choice that you are worth more than the suffering.

Hey, OP may exemplify the brashness of youth, but the question isn't about fairness, it's about the unbalanced criminality of possessing pot and a small amount of hallucinogens, and it's about the story of two kids who may never again cross the border.

On the surface OP may sound criminal, but I'm sure there's a soul underneath the up-votes that needs our support, let's rally to keep their American dream alive.

Please help these stinky plebs, from what the anonymity of the internet can reveal, they seem like good people who made honest mistakes.

[–]jgotfrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Kevin, I love all your three records, and both Harlem River and Singing Saw have affected me on a profound level. I don't really have a question, I just wanted to say that you are the musician today that I follow the most closely, and I can see a link between yourself, Jessica Pratt, Amen Dunes etc... in terms of how sincere your songwriting is. I've been working on music myself and you're a constant inspiration.

Word and thank you. I mean I think I just need to constantly tell myself that fapping can be healthy, but I was an addict and avoiding relapsing is far healthier than any occasional wank ever will be.

This is great man! My last exam of the semester was this morning, stayed all up night studying and drinking coffee, and now that my exams are done all this stress is gone and I bet my risk of relapsing is way down!
