Having a really BAD day

Dont know why really. I've been trying to stay positive, Be grateful for things that I'm blessed with, saying prayers, going to work blah blah blah.  But geeze I guess I'm just sick and tired of being sick and tired is all. As some of u know after I went thru ct-wds, I got hit with a sinus infection that I thought went away on it's own, HA, then ended up in the ER the other night cuz my husband thought I might have pneumonia, just bronchitis from I guess my immune system being shot! And to top it off the meds they have me on I feel like my heart is going a million miles a minute and having really bad anxiety! I'm NOT thinking about using I'm just trying to wish this day away.  I've got the crying jags again.  Guess I just need a pep talk! 20 days today:).  Why am I not happy about that.  I guess it's time for my pity party.  Anyone wanna help throw me out of it??

Just remember,,you didn't where your at overnight and its not going to get better overnight....So you have 20 days?? Thats great!..

Hey, there are going to be some off days regardless of all the clean days..As Laurel says, just try to relax, take a deep breath and remember about the "it will pass" part..Because it will pass..Hope your sinus's and the bronchitis get better soon. That can definitely contribute to some of the headache..:)

  Your not the only one cying there eyes out today. Trust me on that one. Im a 34 year old dude and cried like a baby alot today. I do remember from times past when I quit that being really emotional was a good sign that things are just about to get better. Its ours bodies last ploy. If it helps remember theres a old man crying just like you for the same reason! Im only on day 4 you got 20! SMILE. I know its hard. It wont last forever.

hey,... we are not superhumans so this means we can not feel happy just for being clean when life hits us... being clean is good, is great but life is hard sometimes and it is ok :)  don't beat yourself for being normal :) if you have had a sinus infection and a pneumonia , you are not going to be happy, a fact :) so take it as it comes... tell your husband to be nice to you and cook something, go to the couch with a blanket , rest and eat well and just be grateful that you are getting well, be patience... relax, calm down, breath deeply and don't blame yourself,... you will be ok, IwillQuit2 :)
