It has been 5 mos since my ex and I have
split, and i am trying so very hard to let go.
It seems like everytime I feel that have made
some progress, I digress all over. I can't
get him outta my dreams. I feel like I cannot
get him outta my head. I realized that I am
just not "there" yet to see anyone else. It's
crazy... just when I think the dreams about
him are gone; he comes back in them all
over again. This has been goin on for 3 mos
now. When does it end??? Gotta talk to my
T. It's time. I really need to move on, he has.

You can be addicted to a person just like a drug. Withdrawl is painful. Do you have any codependency literature? You could look it up on line and see if this feel like what your feeling. Good luck.

Sometimes it just takes longer than we want it to. Assuming you were together a while, five months doesn't seem that long to me. Good luck!

Sometimes, the dreams are all about your subconscious sorting through your stuff. Perhaps, it's a good thing?! You never know.

Been there and doing that.
I recommend a book titled: 'How to Survive the Loss of a Love by
Melba Colgrove Ph.D, Harold H. Bloomfield M.D. and Peter McWilliams
A quote from the book: "The body, mind and emotions have enormous wisdom. They know how to heal themselves, and the amount of time they will need to do it. Give them what they need to heal. Trust in the process of recovery. You will survive. You will get better. No doubt about it. The healing process has a beginning, a middle and a end. Keep in mind, at the beginning, that there is an end. It's not that far off. You will heal. Nature is on your side and nature is a powerful ally. Tell yourself often, "I am alive. I will survive." You are alive. You will survive". (and I suggest you sing that song alot it's fun! lol). The book is an easy read in an informing an poetic way. By the way I'm here for you as well. GOOD Luck!
p.s. Read in the Bible Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

It has been 10 years (alone) since the divorce;; I still suffer, because he has someone and I am alone (he abused me for 31 years); guess it takes as long as it takes.

If I could just get him outta my dreams, i would be
able to move on much quicker. I just want peace
and to leave him in the past.
