    Unsure about the healing process
    Is it normal when you're getting used to No Contact and hopefully starting to heal... to find yourself laughing and enjoying stuff again? I mean I will be laughing at TV and suddenly remember that I shouldn't be so happy cause things are so painful. Is that a sign that the healing is working? Its been so long since I was healed from a break up I don't remember.

    Thanks

    Well I think that is a good sign! I have not got to that part yet- but I know if I find myself laughing -gosh I would be happy to hear it myself!

    The healing process takes so long. It is a roller coaster of emotions and feelings. There are times when we break the process and itch the scab, making those steps forward seem worthless. If you can find yourself laughing and enjoying life then you know you are on the right path. Personally, there are days when I am enjoying the hek out of life, then there are others that seem almost as hard as the first couple of weeks we broke up. You got to take the good with the bad. Eventually you start to notice the good will out-weigh the bad.

    That's only a sign that you forgot to be miserable, and dwell on the past.
