Fresh out of a relationship and craving attention/dates even though I’m emotionally not ready

Hi, I (20F) recently went through a breakup in March. This relationship lasted about a year and honestly just ended kind of out of nowhere. It was for the best due to some long term incompabities but still sucked. I’ve done a lot of work to get over the breakup (working out more, being outside, doing hobbies, continuing therapy, etc). But, I keep having a STRONG compulsion to get on dating sites and just go on a bunch of first dates. I know I am not ready and it hasn’t even been 2 months and the idea of being on a date with another person kinda makes me want to throw up, but I can’t get past this idea. How do I get past this “dating itch” so I can focus on just healing and improving myself?
