My ex is my biggest trigger and I relapsed

My ex is my biggest trigger. We ended up meeting and I relapsed.

I’ve cried so much because I was making progress and now I know that I need to cut ties completely in order for me to have a chance to heal and recover.

It hurts and I feel like a failure.

But I’m starting over.

We all make mistakes, and relapse is often a part of the process to getting better. Try to be gentle with yourself. You're doing the right thing in starting over, and now you have more information about what your triggers are, and what you need to do in order to avoid them. I hope you feel better soon. Much love to you! <3

Thank you so much, Pond!! That compassion means a lot.

I have already cut ties and reached out to a therapist, so I’m making progress, little by little.

I hope anyone reading this knows that we have the chance to start over, and I’m sending love and light to all 🌟❤️💕
