“opted for no contact”

I spent months ruminating on my role and what I did wrong after the breakup. I developed unhealthy habits and went into an obsessive mode where I checked up on my ex's stuff constantly.

What I wish I knew
"Not to go into no contact, to focus on myself and my own healing instead of dwelling on the relationship."
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't look at your ex's social media after a breakup, it will only lead to more pain and regret."
