day two

[notmerry5]

day two and I am super lethargic. Can't seem to get any work done and I have lots to do. I am drinking water and green tea but food is just gross.I need to go home after work and get even more done as my son is leaving for school this weekend. No one at home knows and for now it needs to stay that way. Just need some encouragement. Remind me that there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Well....look at it like you have the flu perhaps.  We almost have all had the flu for a few days before...and we all get well
A few days of feeling a bit yucky here and there is part of life if we live long enuf
Addict or not

Hang tight

HI you doing really well if your working threw day 2 and it will get better just give it a few days
make a list of what you have to do check off what you get done you wont be so overwhelmed when you see your making progress on the list....I got one going right now and it helps  I wish I could take credit for the idea but it was my drug conslor Paul that told me to try it this way b/4 that I was completely overwhelmed by all that needs to be done
give it a try good luck and God bless...Gnarly....BTW congrats on day 2

Try not to put too much pressure on yourself right now.  Get done the things that absolutely have to be done and put off the other stuff for now.  Believe me the other things we do to keep up the house (cleaning, laundry, etc) isn't going anywhere and it will wait for you (unfortunately! lol).  Just do the things you know to be most important and you can get to the other stuff later when you're feeling more up to it.

Keep going I'm rooting for you!  :)

Thanks. I need to head home (from work) but know how much is waiting for me. This is where I always relied on my DOC. It would pep me up and I could get it all done. After all who doesn't want to be super mom?????
I need to find another source of strenght.
