good days bad weeks

i have definately noticed that i get a couple good days always followed by several bad days, as time goes by (clean) the good days get more regular and the bad days get less and less, and i  believe if i stay clean soon ill get many more good days than bad days,

i believe this is my brain chemistry returning to normal....yay !

i also believe this is why so many people relapse in early recovery, its very difficult to feel great one day and then feel cr@p for a week.

recovery is new (last 100 years) we are all pioneers.

with me, i thinks its the chemistry in my mind body returning to normal after 3 + years of opiates messing with me.it feel chemical the down days, like something is missing, and i believe what is missing is my natural endorphins, and they are comming back but they are taking there time, and when they do arrive, they get used up real fast and then i have none for a while again.

its definately getting better, its slow but in time i will be back to my normal self, sure there will always be bad days, but if im healthy in my mind and body, those bad days will be easyer to deal with.

good food, lots of water = feel good

opiates coffe and doghnuts = feel bad

im working towards feeling a little better every week,

progress not perfection.

Hey there stranger...Good for you. And yes, you are right, the longer you stay clean, the more "Good Days" to "Bad Days" ratio, will increase. Kiss those bad days goodbye. I am happy, and of course proud of you. You are well on your way to a wonderful, sober, life...and I wish you all the luck in the world...

Hope all is well...

xo, Lisa
