[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I got a high every time we talked so it was fun. I mean I just looked forward to hearing from her. I don’t know what’s happened to me and why I’m a mess over this and have been for the past week. I can’t eat or exercise. I can barely go to work. I constantly think of future convos with her.

I’m trying to figure out how to snap out of it. I appreciate the tough love of Dcum. I do seem pathetic. There was a day last week I couldn’t get out of bed and I just can’t figure out why. 
Our marriage hasn’t been great and I guess I just sought attention elsewhere and got hooked[/quote]

You literally describe her like a drug. So treat it that way - like an addiction to heroin or cocaine. That’s why you couldn’t resist contacting her during the off-limits time period - you needed a fix. You are in withdrawal, which is very painful, but necessary. And you were self-medicating what perhaps was depression or a deep unhappiness, which will benefit you to work through in therapy.[/quote]
