I understand the physical impact when I have any contact with ex, it can be text, email anything my heart sinks and I fill with dread. If I actually see him my chest goes tight and I’m on edge, can’t think straight, if he starts getting agitated my body will actually go into a spasm getting pins and needles throughout my spine. I hate what he does to me and I feel angry with myself for not being able to control it. I feel like no one understands. Luckily at the moment contact is only via email, but even that has me on edge.
