Day 5...also when to start meetings?

Day 5...also when to start meetings?

Hey..im on day 5 now..my heart isnt bothering me like it was yesterday, but i still have palpitations and its really aggrivating when u contantly feel your heart beat.  but at least its beating normal..i think its from the anxiety. or at least i hope it is...wd's arent as bad as the last time, but definately killing me.  cant wait for the acute wd's to end..i hate not sleeping and the miserable nights, but i guess i needed a reminder.. :/

When should i start going to aa or na meetings..my friend is telling me to as soon as tonight, but im going through the wd's and dont really feel well enough to...do you all think i should just go anyway or wait afew days till i feel better and can sit through one?

Thanks everyone :)

The best time to go to a meeting is when you don't want to.

Go and sit in the back. You don't have to talk...just listen. It will take your mind off the withdrawal and may make you feel better.

hey Ronnie I just wanted to drop in and congratulate you on day 5.. This is awesome.. I agree with everybody else no time like the present.. You might find a lot of comfort for what you are going through as in aa na you know you are not alone..  I also had a problem with anxiety from wd I would walk during these times.. It passes just keep your eye on the goal.. Be kind to yourself.. lesa
