ruby77 Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 Hi all, I am 3.5 months into a breakup of 3.5 years. When it first happened, I was an absolute mess, I was so bad that I was scared for my own sanity. But as we've all been there I'm sure you all know how that feels. As time went on, although I was by no means 'back to normal' the pain started to ease and I felt like my life was getting back on track and I could breath a sigh of relief that maybe I would be ok and could get my life back. Now, in the last week I have gradually started to go down again. It started as a small sinking feeling in my stomach which just grew and grew until I spent the weekend in bed crying my eyes out. I thought I was done, why have these feelings come back after such a long time after the split? Has anyone else experienced this? It's pretty scary, I dont want to be stuck in that place again, I want to move on and be happy. Thanks all.

Author ruby77 Posted July 23, 2013 Author Posted July 23, 2013 So it's normal to go that far backwards?? Scared at the moment that I will never be 'normal' again.
forgetmenot75 Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 Hi ruby, I'm 7 weeks no contact and I've experienced better days too. One day I feel I'm complete over him, the next day I can't stop crying.

ggas Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 I'm at 5 months after the breakup. Month 1 and 2 were really bad, month 3 and 4 were good, month 5 quite bad so far. I think in my case is due to the fact that my friends are all stressed out with work and exams and whatever. As long as I keep busy and actually don't think about her at all. It's all about keeping busy and doing things for yourself. Patience is the greatest virtue that's what I always say
