How to forget

this is not going to be some instructional video about how to get over your boyfriend. this sure as hell wont be for people wanting to forget forever, That wont fix anything.

First thing about what it is you want to forget, and I mean really think. Once you have every last thought that relates to that one thing in mind, take a deep breath in and then slowly exhale. Letting all of those thoughts go with it. Imagine they escape with your breath, and do it again, and again, and again until you feel numb. 

Once the numbing kicks in (and it will kick in), go fall asleep. When you wake up I guarantee you wont remember. Until someone asks how your doing. Then it will all come rushing back, and it feels like it wont go away, and maybe it doesn't. I haven't gotten that far in the process yet. 

I guess this post is kind of miss leading.

Like you actually thought you could forget pain.

I know what doesn't work at this point, bottling it up. Maybe the real trick is not forgetting, I think the key might be to remember, not dwell but remember. Only the good things though, that's all that really mattered anyway. 

Yours,
