New here and struggling

I just broke up with a longish term boyfriend. While simultaneously going through medicine changes and stress at work. I'm a mess. And a single mom. I can't stop interacting with my ex though. My OCD won't quit. It's incessant. I can't stop messaging. If I block I unblock. Need some support! Coping strategies. Something! I am bipolar, newly diagnosed but I have suspected for a while as it runs in my family. My kids love this man to pieces. And I caught him browsing a dating app at 2 a.m. I can't focus on anything else.

I would recommend you block again. Make sure it's not anywhere else. Don't overwhelm yourself just take it 10 minutes, then when you get used to that put it up to 20 and so on. I'm a single mum too. x
