Tomorrow will be four weeks since I went cold turkey from Oxy and three weeks since I gave up on Tiaprofenic, the anti-inflammatory. For the past while I have been performing a self exorcism. Oxy may be gone but it left three of it's demons behind, paranoia, anxiety and no-sleep. I have so far defeated paranoia. I am now in the process of using meditation to defeat the other two. The last two demons work as a team. Anxiety keeps you awake and no-sleep makes you anxious. I thought I had them beat last night but I won't know for sure for a couple of days.
Managed five hours last night, the longest I have slept in four weeks. Drank green tea last night and doing it again tonight along with meditation and the rapid eye movement I learned here.
Keep the faith people. Shalom, Mannie
