Sent my Ex-Situationship a Follow-Request & Freaked Out

So recently I had gone through this weird situationship breakup thing and it broke me completely. While my friends have always been there for me and they keep telling me about my value, it didnt make me feel better. And a day ago I made things a bit complicated by sending the guy a follow request on instagram to which my friends reacted by scolding me, which is quite understandable based on the way he treated me. I personally am not someone who puts a guy over my self respect but this time idk what happened which made me follow him. I am so grateful for having such friends and I truly love them but this time their presence just didnt help.

I tried looking for some journaling or mental health app and came across some on the playstore. One of them was neulish and it apparently has many different features - I happened to use the ai companion and thought I’d give it a try. It unexpectedly did make me feel better and less anxious and idk it was different from using gpt. So if any of you are having a hard time about processing some feelings, and sharing it with your loved ones isnt making anything better, there might be some tools out there which could help you.

Do any of you have any suggestions on something which has helped you calm down when you think you’ve made a big mistake ?
