"My Give a Damn's Busted" Spell to Stop Caring
“You filled up my head with so many lies,
you twisted my heart ‘til something snapped inside.
I’d like to give it one more try
but my give a damn’s busted.”
A spell to help you stop caring about someone who is abusive, manipulative, or toxic in any way. Involves a lot of writing and thinking/remembering the person’s shitty actions, so make sure you have plenty of spoons before attempting this spell.
black marker/pen (banishing)
cookie sheet/baking pan (something that will withstand a forceful blow from a hammer)
1. On one side of your paper make a list of all the shitty, horrible things this person has said/done to you. Anything that has made you feel even remotely bad about yourself or your life, write that shit down.
2. On the reverse side, make a list of all the ways they’ve tried to excuse their behavior or convince you to still be in their life/manipulate you into thinking you need them. Get it all out.
3. Say each of the following phrases out loud or in your head, whichever feels more final to you. Rip the paper in halves after saying each phrase (so that it gets torn in to smaller shreds with each phrase):
I want to feel something.
Let me dig a little deeper.
Tear that shit to hell and back, until it’s nothing more than a bunch of tiny, shredded pieces of paper.
4. Sprinkle the pieces across your cookie sheet/whatever you chose.
5. Melt a few candles and pour the wax over your paper shreds. Be sure to cover them completely. Wait for the wax to completely dry before proceeding (a thinner layer will dry faster if time is an issue, with the added bonus of showing your writing through the wax).
6. When the wax is dry carve your target’s name right in the center of the wax. Concentrate on how absolutely done with them you are.
7. Pick up your hammer, concentrate on their name, and say:
8. Smash the hammer down on their name hard enough to crack the wax. Scrape the wax off, wrap it in tissue, and throw it away (preferably somewhere outside of your house, like a dumpster or something).
