Day eleven!!!!

This is my day 11! I never thought last week I would be here today typing about 11 days clean. I slept till six this morning. My goal tonight is no melatonin. If I'm up, I'm up. I  praying very hard to my god for strength to get through the RLS in my arms. I know it can't be taken away, that is something that only time will fade, but I just want strength to not lose my mind when it sets in. I'm thinking it should be over soon. And by this weekend I will maybe be back to some type of normal sleep pattern. Thanks all for your support! On to twelve!

Wow! You made it to day 11. Congrats! Are you taking Epsom Salt baths for the RLS? This will really help. Also, Magnesium, Calcium, and Zinc supplements, as well as Potassium, helped ease that RLS for me.  You have the right attitude. Keep moving forward, and things will get better. All the best!

Congrats Lain on 11.  That's great.  Glad melatonin works for you....never did for me.  I was on Lunesta for sleep issues before i got on the Opioid roller coaster.  So i REALLY need it now. Its funny, i read about so many women with RLS.  I never got it but noticed many women do....doesn't sound fun.

Congrats again & keep up the good work.
