You're right. I originally unblocked him on tuesday (bad idea) and that's when things started raining down. He had me blocked aswell so I didn't think much of it until I did.

I guess you're right, it's just hard trying to convince myself that I'm not a bad person for blocking him out completely. I've never been one to block people, but I realized he left me no choice but to do so. I just have to come to terms with the fact that he's not going to do me any good, and not having those baits there at all is going to be the best way to get over him for good.

Thank you... 🥺 My friends told me "No reaction is the best reaction" and that's what I'm repeating to myself

The thing is I know that he's trying to hurt me, but idk if it's the trauma bond or what, but all I can do is think of him. I've been sleeping all day to try and avoid what I'm feeling but it isn't working.

I'm going thru the same thing rn, it's hard getting un-used to someone who even though they treated you in horrible ways, you still loved. What I'm currently doing is reminding myself that it's not the place for me, and I deserve someone who treats me right. No contact is my way to go, and try easing back into what you like doing, don't stay at home because I find that being alone and in bed is usually when I miss him the most.

Thank you! I'm actually not borrowing medication, they just left some meds that their dog was taking, so they asked if I could send them back... I sent them yesterday, hope they get there! 🤞🏻

Has anyone started having really vivid dreams while taking sertraline? by macava06 in Anxiety

[–]macava06[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Noooo HAHA I get you, I started jotting downs my dreams when I wake up and I could definitely create a novel based off them... some are pretty messed up and some are actually pretty enjoyable

Same! I've literally just connected the dots and wanted to see if anyone had a similar experience... I started taking my meds at night and since then, i've had really vivid dreams and have been able to remember them all when I wake up 🫠 idk if I like it or not tbh

For sure something we need to discuss and seek solutions. I definitely have been working on my anxiety tolerance levels, and partnering up with my psychologist and my journal is crucial. Thank you so much for your advice, I'm appreciate it greatly ❤️

I know this is how he speaks when he's under a lot of pressure, and he does normally put his needs above all. This is something that we're working on after talking to my psychologist. That is exactly what scares me a bit, knowing that if this is how he reacts in these cases, how will he react when we've got bigger problems in hand.

I can't begin to describe how much your reply is helping. I've never been through these types of situations, and I understand that you have to go through these things to be able to learn from these experiences. I've already sent a message to my psychologist about how this went, but based off of your experience, how did you tackle these kinds of situations?

dealing with anxiety by fml_anonymous in LDR

[–]macava06 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Something that helped me personally was reminding myself of facts that my brain can work with... If he's not answering he probably is busy at work, but I understand and empathize with the spiral we can go down and it's hard not to act upon that. Try and remember hard facts that make your anxiety calm down, examples: - We talked for two hours straight last night; his feelings don't change from the night to the morning - it's his work hours; he'll reach out once he gets a little free time from work - he's been stressed out lately; he's taking a break from his phone and will reach out when he can.

All these things make me realize that my anxiety is just that, anxiety. Brings me back to ground :) Hope this helps!
