We broke up around 2 weeks ago now, during the first week I was quite alright, we texted eachother once in a while. Just once in a while felt alright, otherwise it would hurt.

Now I'm find myself waiting for him to text me back, I feel myself falling back into depending on whether or not we talk, if he responds, how long between texts etc. 

I don't want to be dependent on him in any way shape or form, I want to learn that I can exist on my own, while still sometimes talking to him. 

Is there anything I could do? I've been struggling mentally a lot recently, so I'm guessing that's why I've been falling back into this mindset. But this time it's different because I recognize it's bad. I just need advice.
