Very proud of you. When people disappear from the forum it USUALLY means they're chasing the dragon again. Not so with you. I'm so happy to read your post. You were an inspiration to me. Congrats.

That's just what I needed right now. I am on morning of day 12 and I can't sleep. I just want to cry! I am a busy mom and so far I've had a pretty easy time compared to some with the w/d. The dang RLS is not cool, but I've gotten great advice on how to deal with that. I actually didn't have it last night but I couldn't get my brain to shut off so it was after midnight before I drifted off. Then up at 5:30. Like stinkin clockwork. Thank you for giving me hope. And PLEASE tell me you are sleeping well?!?
