I believe in life everything happens for a reason.Go to the side bar[recent activity] and read what Gizzy just wrote in his journal "Breaking free and some older ones.' I think you were meant to hear those words today.

Hey my friend,just went and read your other post.You have to re group here.Calm down and take some deep breaths.I know the physical part is rough but sometimes we get ourselves so worked up and scared about it that we make it harder on our selves.You made it 3 days and for some reason,I'm not really sure why,it seems like days 3 or 4 seem to be the worst for most of us.BUT by day 4 you are going to be almost half way there.If you woke up with the flu tomorrow,you wouldn't have a choice.You would have to just go through the motions of being sick until it ran it's course.So tomorrow you are going to wake up and at some point you are going to feel like you have the super flu and do you really have a choice but to get through it and let it run it's course??? Whats 5-8 days of the super flu compared to the rest of your life? You want your life back so this is just something that you have to get through in order for that to happen.Don't underestimate yourself.You're stronger then you think you are.You're not the only one who has ever felt this way.Trust me hon,there are plenty of us who wanted to stop but continued to use because we were scared of the w/ds.I was absolutely one of them,but I made it and you will too.Everytime I felt like I wouldn't make it one more minute I got on here and posted.I got plenty of support and encouragment and that occasional kick in the behind I needed to let me know that for me and for my family I NEEDED to hang in there and see this through.I did it,plenty of us here did it,and we are no different from you,YOU CAN DO THIS too.We're here for you.We can't be there in the physical sense but we are never more then a click away.You have to do the hard part but we will be here with you every step of the way.You're not alone.You don't have to do this alone.You have to dig deep.It's time to face that demon and beat it down.YOU CAN DO IT,I know you can....Keep posting.....Kim

From reading other posts things start to improve around day 4 or 5 so if you have made 3 days you aren't that far off from kicking this.. Good luck and I know there will be others here with first hand knowledge a be able to give you better advice
