snap226 Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 This really sucks! This is my first weekend post breakup. I don't want to go out, and I have a nervous pit in my stomache. I've been doing good with the no contact thing, but my mind is racing. The past few nights I have noticed I have trouble sleeping. Has anybody else felt this way in the beginning?
wowIlose Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Yup.. I still have dreams about her (how messed up is this???) and its been 3 months since the break up, 2 weeks NC. Weekends are always hard for me as well. still.. good times eh? lol Gets better..
Author snap226 Posted November 11, 2007 Author Posted November 11, 2007 This is the life!!!!!!OMG this really sucks. I hope this gets better soon!
cant let go Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 yup. dreams just about every night. although i find the less hours i sleep the less i dream. haha but that is not really a good solution. i try to pray every night for a peaceful sleep and lately it has been helping. he usually shows up in my dreams but lately i haven't woken up the wreck that i had earlier on. Oh and as far as the mind racing. Try writing out what you feel. I found that early on my thoughts were coming full force at me at like a bazillion a minute. By writing down my feelings I was able to concentrate on one thought at a time. it took me many hours even days to get through them all but once they were out it was easier for me to relax.
Author snap226 Posted November 11, 2007 Author Posted November 11, 2007 I think I'll try writing down my feelings and see how that goes. Right now I have a million and one different thoughts running through my brain. I'm OK in the day (as good as I can get). The worst part of the day is right before bed and first thing in the morning when I wake. A few seconds after waking I feel like I get hit with a ton of bricks when it occurs to me what is going on. Has anybody else had this experience?
wowIlose Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Yup.. its easier now though. Hits me in the morning than I usually say something like "f*** off" lol. Its nothing like the first few days though.
cant let go Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Yup. All too familiar. The morning was the worst.
k10k Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 Been around a month and a half for me, and I still get that morning feeling - some days it's not so overwhelming though. I'm finding that lately I've been breaking down in stupid places, for example, I had to hold back the tears when I went to pay for something in the shop today, wtf? it hits you at the strangest of times.. but I guess it's all normal and part of the process. Hang in there .. I keep telling myself that it won't feel/be like this forever, one day the sun will shine again. In the meantime, deep breathes, lots of water, and take it minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day, week by week Weekends suck, but at least tomorrow is Monday... yey
FindingMyselfAgain Posted November 11, 2007 Posted November 11, 2007 It's painful right now. It will get better, a LOT better. Just hang in there. After you've experienced enough pain, you'll get sick of it. You'll want something different. At that point, write a contract with yourself. Commit to praying, to letting go, to seeing hope.
