My thread was a success last weekend so I thought I'd do round 2. Don't worry I'm not going to take up thread space in the Coping forum every single weekend, this'll probably be the last one.

 

If you missed it last weekend, the basic premise is -- take a vacation from all this drama. We all come on here and post to death, we bug our family and friends and make them listen to our heartache, we waste perfectly good days missing people who have left us and treated us badly. Your mission for this weekend, is to enjoy yourself. Give your body and mind a break from all this depression. Don't talk about your breakup, do your best not to even think about it, and appreciate life again.

 

Play some silly music and dance around, go out with friends, hang out with family, rent a movie, play a videogame, take yourself shopping, get outdoors and enjoy nature, whatever you want!

 

A big problem for many of us is that we started to love our exes more than we love ourselves. Imagine what outlandish show of affection you would cook up if you thought you could win your ex back tomorrow. You would spare no cost, no amount of time or energy, to try to love someone else. Give yourself that love for a weekend. Or share it with someone in your life who still does matter, like family and friends.

 

You can still hurt on Monday if you want. You can go back to struggling with NC and missing your ex and wondering if there is any meaning to life anymore. But take a vacation from it.

 

You can even consider it a personal favor to me. I'm a fellow struggling heart-broken individual just like you. It'll make me feel better if I know a few people decided to try to enjoy their weekend because of this.

I want to just enjoy myself again, really I do. You have to believe me. And if you consider it to be a favor to you then I will try my very hardest. I promise.

 

But I can't lie to you, I just don't feel like I don't deserve to enjoy myself anymore after what I've done to myself. My despair and endless wallowing is like a never ending punishment I have inflicted on myself.

 

There must be a way I can apply for bale right? Appeal to myself for a re-trial and leniency? :(
