Now that I'm off of Soma I feel depressed

I kicked this stuff recently but just feel like laying in bed and not smiling. Is this normal. When will I return to normal. I have no motivation and just want to lie in bed. Any suggestions. I love all of you and this board!

It really doesn't take long for the soma depression to lift.  Your missing that cute little buzz you get, and think about it.......it lasts for maybe 20 minutes if your lucky.....not worth it.......your still missing the mental part of popping.  It should pass really soon.  NO SOMA.......Promise?????

Nauty...............

the doomers!   have u guys looked at the amino acid protocol...the SAMe and the 5htp can help...I took an anti-depressent beginning about 2 weeks before detox and stopped it a few weeks ago...I am not sure if it helped or not...I do know exercise helps tremendously and I can not emphasize it enough...releases endorphins...runners high...dont get addicted to it tho!  Nah I would much rather be addicted to exercise than pills any day of the week
