Jmina Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 I found this in a search i just did... "It was a little bit weird for me, but i'd like to read what you guys think of it,if you decide to try it, let us know if it works! ?. As your eyes move from left to right reading every word of this article you will start to realize that you are still remembering your ex, may be that's why you picked up this article. But I want you to STOP and start to realize how wonderful it will be to forget your ex completely and as you to picture some other time in the future where you will be feeling happy with new life, may be you will have a new relationship, looking back now, remembering the time you were having problems with your ex, you will not believe how easy it was to forget your ex. Now here comes some goodies, an exercise that will blow your mind, it is probably something you have never heard before that will take you to the wonderful future. This exercise is design for you to clear your ex memories that are hurting you right now by putting a new code (a pattern in the brain). After doing this exercise you are going to feel better and more energetic. You know, bad ex memories drain your mind to work properly, you can't think or do things right and you can't even get a new love because of non-existing creature in your mind that keeps blocking you from accomplishing important things in your life. Lets do the exercise now?oh I just remember something here? what we are going to do is to break the code. What I mean is this, we are going to change what we have been programmed to remember about our ex. So by breaking this code we will forget our ex. Okay, I know you are eagerly waiting to do this exercise now so lets get started? I want you to imagine being in a theatre watching a picture of your ex, this is a still picture (no movement) see him/her from head to toe, see every thing about him/her. Now as you see the picture, I want you to put a your small picture (which is small as a dot) in front of your ex. Then make your picture getting bigger and brighter until it cover your ex picture completely. Do it again the second time but faster. Do as many time as possible at every time make your picture brighter and do it faster. By doing this exercise you will reduce the significant of your ex memory in your mind. It may seem like a stupid exercise but it is very powerful in the subconscious level. The code will be different, so when next time your mind start to remember those memories of your ex it will read a different code which will not be as painful as it is .For most people the ex lover will be insignificant. After practicing this exercise your vision about the world will change and you will become a better person. Sincerely, Timeo Busyanya, Helping individuals, improve their self image"
Storyrider Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Picture your ex sitting on the toilet, pooping. I have found that to be quite effective, and it sounds simpler than the above.
Spinderella Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Lol, Both good techniques. Theres also the one which is similar to that, where you fade out the picture to black and white, and then make it smaller. There are lots of ways to effectively stop the addiction to your ex, or addiction to thinking about your ex, but I think for most people who feel addicted and are taking the break-up badly, there are usually more reasons than just feeling loss of that person. There are usually combinations of loneliness, some feelings of inadequacy in one area or another, fear for the future...and much more, that were temporarily "solved" by having someone love you, and want to be with you. So a combination of these techniques and working on the rest of life would be more effective in my opinion.
nemo28 Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 I am addicted to thinking about my ex b/f. We were together for 5 years. Broke up last March and he met someone else. He won't even acknowledge me now. He works for my family business and everytime i see him i try say hi he looks straight through me. It's making it extra hard to get over him. I still love him and it is really hurting me that someone can stop talking to me for no reason. I'm not looking for friendship or anything as i know he has a new g/f now and i wouldn't want to interfere but i would like some respect, a simple hello or a wave would suffice. Its making it so hard for me to forget about him. How can someone who said they loved me for 5 years suddenly HATE MY GUTS. I don't get it....
birdie Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Picture your ex sitting on the toilet, pooping. I have found that to be quite effective, and it sounds simpler than the above. don't think that would work for me. he sent me texts in the past telling me about reading while on the loo so had to picture him like that well before we broke up
Sanslatete Posted October 26, 2007 Posted October 26, 2007 I've tried all sorts of psychological tricks and tactics, had endless hours of counselling, researched NLP techniques and books, listened to countless self-help MP3s and surfed the internet for anything relevant. But, 4 months on, I'm still riding on my wave of grief. I suppose it depends on what kind of person you are and how much you loved your ex, so I don't know what it says about me that I'm still struggling this far on. I just want to get past this stage, I hate feeling this low and depressed all the time, no matter what I do to keep myself busy (and it's a lot). It's not as if I still have her on a pedastal either, I'm angry at the way I was treated towards the end, but I still miss her painfully and wish it hadn't all happened. Is there any hope for me I wonder? It's all getting a bit much.
