I tried journaling every day, spent months in therapy talking about my feelings, and even deleted all my ex's photos and blocked them everywhere…
Nothing worked.
Until I discovered the real reason I was stuck…
My brain was chemically addicted to a fantasy version of my ex that didn't exist, and every trigger was resetting my healing back to zero.
When you go through a breakup, your brain automatically edits out the bad parts (the fights, the red flags, the hurt) and only replays the good moments.
It's a protective mechanism, but it keeps you trapped.
Every reminder (a song, a place, their social media) gives your brain a "hit" and restarts the withdrawal cycle from scratch.
That's why blocking them and staying busy didn't help…I was fighting biology with willpower (and losing every time).
The "The 21-Day Breakup Recovery System” was born from that discovery.
Once I understood why distraction and "giving it time" weren't working, everything shifted.
I stopped wasting energy on generic advice and started using a science-backed method that breaks the dopamine loop, forces your brain to see the relationship as it really was, and rebuilds your identity step by step.
The result? I stopped obsessing within 72 hours (thanks to negative reappraisal techniques proven to reduce attachment by 35%), quit checking social media within a week, and felt genuinely happy again by Day 21.
And now, for the first time ever, I'm sharing this exact system with the public…
