    05:20Wild Advice for Those Who Have Lost Their Minds Over an Ex
    • Lastly, break the wise rules. Of course you should never call them, naturally you shouldn't beg them to return, it's entirely necessary to block their number. But there are grave dangers in trying to be so grown up one never allows oneself to mature. There are certain blows to the ego from which one can only ever recover through unguarded humiliation. Make yourself abject and silly. Try everything and watch it fail. Observe yourself descending into a mockery of your former coherent self. Sink as deep as the pain commands. Live the impossibility, don't just intellectually assume it and then suffer from your emotions never following suit. Properly experience where things can't be until the lesson sinks in authentically rather than logically. Tie yourself back to health. No one can make you wise one moment ahead of time or in your place. The best way to recover sanity is to allow madness to have its full, unfettered, horrific, necessary run.
