I am trying to stop obsessing about a previous lover and need to find out what Cognitive Behavioural Therapy tool can be used so that I do not keep on trying to control a previous situation. I understand what I am doing wrong but can't seem to stop doing this obessing. Help!!!

CBT tool, what the hell, how old are you, you are in the prime of your life, book a trip get away, from everything, from her, you can't call this way, you can't drive past her house... treat yourself but remember... people don't leave good things.....

I also was in a situation like this.And I'm 40.It may take a yr. a even longer and you'll probably feel like you're going crazy at times.But,stay away from this person and live you're life to the fullest.You will never forget about them.But the pain of not being with them will get better with TIME.And if its that serious,you need to see a counselor.Or a good friend that you can talk to.The person you're obsessing over should know how you feel also.It will make you feel better if you talk to them one last time about this and then let it go.If they don't want to be with you.You will find someone else someday that will care about you as much as you do them.

I would suggest keeping a journal..writing can help you unleash your feelings on paper and get them out of your head. Also taking up a new hobby could help.. If I may suggest a book Mind Over Mood by Dennis Greenberger and Christine Padesky may help you find more tools to use.

Try to find a hobbie or an extracurricular activity to occupy you time.... I used to have those issues as for I suffer from OCD, and thank my lucky stars I have been able to keep it at bay and in check for years now without the aid of medications. You have the inner strenght to get through this, trust me, this won't kill you... you will get over it... but for the meantime, try to find activities in your community that you can participate, try volunteering at a retirement home or at your local children's hospital, try to learn a new sport or how to play an instrument...
You will see that with time... this too shall pass....
Good luck!!

AS SOON AS YOU SLAP YOURSELF AND REALIZE THAT IF YOU DON'T STOP, YOU'LL GROW OLD AND ALONE CAUSE NO ONE WILL BE ABLE TO TOLERATE YOUR BEHAVIOR, TRUST ME YOU'LL STOP.
