I'm eight weeks post the BU, and every day is a struggle. Evenings and weekends feel like hell, and I cant sleep more then a few hours each night. Today I was at my doctors and she noticed that I lost weight, i'm 5.9 and I weigh 115 lb and she asked if something bad happened to me, and I told her that I'm going through a hard time since I lost my job,

after broke up with ex at the same time, and I'm still unemployed.

She said that I should say the resentment prayer from the AA Book for two weeks twice a day and it will make things a lot better. I heard this from other people as well. So I'm posting it for anyone that would like to try it.

 

Recite once in the morning and once at night for 14 days.

Dear God, I have a resentment towards (ex-name) that I want to be free of. So, I am asking You to give (ex-name) everything I want for myself. Help me to feel compassionate understanding and love for (ex-name). I pray that (he/she) will receive everything (he/she) needs. Thank you God for your help and strength with this resentment.

I hope that someday I can say and mean this towards my ex. And I know that someday I will. But I am far from that point right now.

 

Right now it's time for me to be the selfish one and want things for myself. And as for him, he can just get what's coming to him. Which could be good or bad, depends on whether he decides to continue going through his life treating others like disposable pieces of garbage that are here only to serve him, or learns and wants to be a decent human being and treat others with respect.

Sorry for your pain, I wish I could get angry at my ex because any normal woman would, but all I feel is my own pain over and over again. Just to let you know, you can recite the prayer even if you dont mean it in your heart, but by the end of the two weeks you will, and you'll free yourself.
