HI first off congrads on 3 weeks clean... what your feeling is pritty normal from detoxing off narcotics it can take a wile to start to feel good again it kinda goes 2 differt ways some feel great they get what some call the pink cloud effect others like me an you tend to have a harder time of it....try not to get discouraged with time you do start to feel better
if the depression persists past 90 days the go to a dr and get put on antidepressants
but give it a chance to turn around on its own it usually does one thing we push on here is aftercare...it will help you deal with some of the side effects of coming off narcotics it will also give you the tools to help maintain a healthy lifestyle now that you clean I cant stress enough how important this is for you...N/A and A/A our free also a substance abuse conslor is good you need to find what fits you best then get plugged in ..
just hang in there better days are coming good luck and God bless......Gnarly

Great Job! I to am addicted to loratab. I am 6 days clean. Day 4 I could no longer take the depression, and was put on an antidepressent. It's fast acting and boy can I feel it. This is just what I did so I would not relapse over depression. Good luck and try and have a great loratab free weekend!

From what everyone says here, is that it could take a month or more to get back to feeling normal. Have looked up ne vitamins to take? Try the Thomas recipe on this site. Itake st. Johns wort, it promotes good mood. I take it all the time it really works! Netime a negative thought get into ur head the herb blocks it and takes it away. Take a muti mineral/ multiple vitamin vitamin, b vitamins, b vit. turn ur food into energy. Ithose r to just mention a few. Ur find alot more on the Thomas recipe.....congradulations on 3 weeks being clean!!!!! Great job.
