Thank you, Tracey! I needed to hear that. I definitely get stuck in the “no one will ever love (or like) me again” mentality. Why do we do that to ourselves?! It’s almost like our minds are trying to sabotage us. I did meet some new friends the other night and it was nice to have new connections and especially nice to not have people constantly ask me if my ex and I have talked (ummm no of course not! haha). I’m glad things have gotten better for you. It seems as though you are in a much better place and it gives me hope I will get there too!

Maybe I just needed to write it down. Weekends also seem hard as I’m busy but I’m not interacting with as many people. I think I’m going to try harder to make sure I’m being social on the weekends as well. I actually went to a meetup last night and met a few nice people!
Whit – I’m sorry you’re going through something similar. I agree training yourself to think about something else and just staying busy helps to keep your mind off of it. I hope everything gets better for you as well.
SamParticipantI’m also trying not to watch the news as much! It’s sometimes difficult to find a balance between wanting to be informed and feeling completely overloaded with depressing news.
SamParticipantLove these! Emmanuelle – I also seem to be happier when I avoid social media. It’s amazing how wrapped up we get in other’s lives and how that can impact us. Ani – I also feel that way about cooking mainly because usually my food doesn’t come out well haha!
