Trying to get over an ex

Hello.

I wrote an article about how my ex gave me anxiety. I'm trying my best to stay away and not talk to him but it's not working. I got a new job and go out more and tried getting new hobbies but I still feel anxious when I think about him. I know this all takes time but it's already been around half a year and I still want him in my life. What other things can I do to get over these feelings besides giving it time?

Thank you to anyone who reaches out.

Ianio - I feel for you. I really do. You miss the person. It will take time but you are doing right by getting new hobbies and hopefully meeting new people. What about some counselling too - it helps to talk to someone neutral. Take care and be kind to yourself. x
