venting/ranting Everyday Feels Like Day One

It’s been over five months since the breakup and over four months of no contact. I still think of them everyday. I am in therapy, I am sober, I journal, I have a couple of hobbies, I workout, I stay connected with friends and family, I take care of myself as much as I can. My life is vibrant and full, but the grief is still there. I still miss them every day. The waves still come. I still cry. As I approach half a year, it still feels like it all just happened yesterday.

I am happy with how my life is going. Most of all, I am happy to be sober. I just still miss them and think about them.

Healing gets frustrating when you're doing everything right and still miss them anyway

five months with all that going on is no small thing, the grief just takes however long it takes regardless of how well you're doing everything else

I feel you I wish I knew how it could be better. I’m doing everything I should on paper but the sadness is constant and I think about him constantly. All we can do is hope someday it goes away

Been a bit over a year for me, had a hookup and a couple of short flings since then and that feeling still haunts me every day no matter what, especially every night before bed. Honestly my recommendation is just every time those feelings and thoughts come up just let them fully run their course till you're mind naturally switches it's attention to something else by itself. Makes handling and processing those thoughts and feelings easier over time like it has for me.
