I had trauma bonded to someone and managed to break the bond. Going no contact was the only thing that worked. It is an absolutely brutal process; Im not going to sugar coat it. Every time I had an urge to contact the person I would have to redirect and distract myself until the urge past. It is essentially breaking an addiction.

The thing is too, in my opinion, the no contact has to last forever. Like any addiction, if you turn back it is so easy to fall into old habits. The plus side? The longer you hold out, the easier it gets. The habit falls out of being a habit.
