your welcome. its one of those tricky things, because everyones emotional issues are so very different. Sucks because you feel like your getting better and wham!!!!! real bad, but does start to get better from there. Everybody peaks at their worst differently, but just expect that you will feel horrible for at least 7 days on the physical withdrawals and who knows? you might get a reprieve. Try to eat as much as you can......its really hard but not eating really screws you up and makes you feel worse. Think about it...If you normally didnt eat for days how you would feel.......put that on top of withdrawals, so food is key.....as nutritious as you can. Its so hard i rememember not being able to eat for 9 days.......so please eat. soup, fruit, small portions of proteins all throughout the day..........

To be honest..it's different for everyone. It took me a week..some people take a month. I can tell you that after a week or so it got better for me every day. When I needed a saprk, I'd down a Red Bull.
I felt the worst on days 3, 4 and 5 but by day 6 - I saw the light at the end of the tunnel. By day 8, I had probably 75% of my normal energy back. I'm on day 12 now and still about 75-80%. I was crying about 10 times a day before, now it's only 2 or 3. I took immodium too - that worked really well and I am also drinking an energy drink from Advocare called "Spark" - it has 500 mg. l-tyrosine in it and that really helps! It's also got a bunch of other vitamins in it. I try to take a walk every day - that helps, too. It will feel so good for you to to feel normal again! I wish I could have slept through that first week but all you have to do is get through those days and you'll be okay. Now if I could find something to cure the back pain that led me down this road to begin with, I'd be ok!!!
Thanks! I rather not have it sugar coated. I hear you...lots of immodium for sure! Thanks for the support..it means the world to me!
Im not gonna sugar coat anything. Everyone is different , but it can take a longtime to get the energy back after a c/t I've read from weeks, months, up to a year. The more you force yourself to do things ......the better you will feel. Im not much of a believer in synthetic vitamins or amino's, but some people swear by them. The vit B I couldn't take because it gave me such a rush I would crash sooo hard about 4 hours later. It was a sub linuglal form of B complex.......maybe I'll try the pill form. from what I read the next few days are gonna be your worst. Gets worse a few days before it gets better. lots of hydration and immodium. Good luck, dear.
