Yeah, moving to a new city seems like the only thing that will help right now. Healthy or not.
I've thought of getting a therapist to help me get over this one. But aside from my picky tastes in therapists, I think he'd jump at that chance to terminate me, and I just can't handle that yet.
I like the idea of a ritual. That was beautiful what you did. I thought you would say something like you rolled over the figure with your car. :P It was lovely that you were able to ask for both of you to be taken care of.
I've lost people to death before. And I generally do something like make an album, or other memorial of them with pictures. But death is a *comparatively* anger free loss.
Would you believe I've never broken up with anyone in my entire life (except the emotional divorce from my mother)? I've drifted away, and been hurt, but never broken up. I'll have to open myself up to something that will serve as a closing ritual for me.
I have a therapist figure, but so far my thoughts had been running to doing unspeakable things to it. Perhaps I could try to think of something more generous.
