Wretched - good advice, and thanks for the helpful ideas on detaching - I like the "de-emotionalizing" better. I limited my interactions with H this week and already feel stronger and calmer as a result. I need to stay in this state, as we are slated to meet out for a dinner "date" on Sunday and I really hope to be calm, cool and collected (as my mother used to say) when we are together.
I am fine as long as I don't let my mind focus too much on OW. That's when I start to spin negative and usually wind up saying something I regret. so the thought stopping techniques have been helpful in that regard.
I hope you are doing ok, wretched...and thanks for your support!
