I used to be quite a blocker too. After an interesting session with my psychologist, he said something that really shifted my perspective: parking people on your blocked list can actually make the blocked list itself your trigger. Imagine all the people you dislike just sitting together in one place, still taking up emotional space in your life.
Part of my healing journey has been decluttering everything : my physical space, emotions, phone, and even memories. Removing a number and blocking it still means that memory is stored somewhere on your phone. He explained that true healing is understanding that your triggers will always exist in the world, and blocking them doesn’t mean you’ve locked them away forever.
He said the day I become truly self-mastered, their existence won’t disturb me. Possible calls or texts will feel irrelevant, almost as though they don’t exist at all.
About a month ago, I decluttered my phone and cleared my blocked list because I realised those blocks were still keeping my triggers alive. Since then, I’ve felt a sense of peace and relief because there’s no longer a physical reminder of their existence in my life.
I think sometimes the block button gives people too much power over you. Ignoring, archiving, and continuing to move forward quietly feels like the ultimate stoic power.
