TheMixtape Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 I've pretty much undone all my hard work. I'm severely depressed and I can't stop checking my ex's social media. She's working with famous people now, and I feel so low. I feel like I'm at the bottom of a dark well with no means of getting out.
LoveIsMyReligion Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 You don't need her to be happy. Why not focus on making yourself happy without having to rely on a woman to do so? 3
MINDSHIFT Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 All i can say is stop!!!! A few days ago I made that promise to myself not to check her **** and I feel better already. I had a very unhelthy obssession of checking my ex social media. My thinking was "let me just see a pic of her and her boyfriend and i can move on". When I saw a indication of her boyfriend i felt sick and angry. Ask yourself why are you looking at her social media. What are you gaining except for prolonging your pain. You need to get her out of your mind or she forever will have a negative effect on you. it's social media, she not going to post a picture up of her look sad crying. Every picture is going to be a happy one and then your going to get even more depressed. Cause your going to be like "she still having fun while im depressed". Stop now!! trust me. 4
gls081209 Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 I repeat, DELETE YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA! Challenge yourself to get off all social media for one month. If you do that and keep NC (not even knowing what's going on with her), I GUARANTEE that you will feel a little better. You definitely won't be "over it," but at least you can get over this hump. Remember that social media represents what a person wants to present to the world. It may not be in any way true. 3

Tobin Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 I've pretty much undone all my hard work. I'm severely depressed and I can't stop checking my ex's social media. She's working with famous people now, and I feel so low. I feel like I'm at the bottom of a dark well with no means of getting out. The mind plays tricks. Especially when depressed. It makes things seem much worse than they really are. It's just a MIND GAME. Keep telling yourself that until you start believing it. 4
Satu Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 OP: Firstly, recognise that you are doing this to yourself. Every time you snoop on her social media you give yourself a dose of misery. *No direct contact in either direction. *No sending or receiving of messages. *Block any means she might use to contact you. *No replies to anything that gets through your blocks. *No indirect contact through third parties. *De-friend or delete from all social media. *No monitoring of her on social media. *No 'little birds' feeding you news. *Tell people that you don't want to know anything about what she is doing or saying. 2
sillygirl123 Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 I'm so sorry. Social media really is the worst agony you can put yourself through but it's so hard not to look. Don't beat yourself up. I'm going through a similar situation myself right now, just hit me out of nowhere, when I was doing so well. Remember that it won't last forever. You can get past this, just like you did before. 2
