I had a relatively comfortable night. I did wake up several times without being able to go right back to sleep... but I was not uncomfortable at all. I wouldn't even say I was restless, I just couldn't go back to sleep. I just layed in bed and watched Law & Order: Criminal Intent reruns. Can't complain.
It's about 3:30 right now and I'm feeling okay after taking only 2, 2mg pills so far. My head has a bit of pressure in it.. like I'm just one the verge of getting a sinus headache, but it's tolerable.
My husband left for work earlier today and got one of my pills out of the safe and left it for me. He is working late so he felt it best to leave one for me just in case I became uncomfortable. Its sitting in my medicine cabinet if I need it before my planned time to take it (which is bed time, around midnight.).
I don't know if the worst of things just hasn't hit yet or if I've been really lucky to not be experiencing a lot of the things I've been reading here. Perhaps its coming, the calm before the storm. I' prayed so hard about this whole process before even making the phone call to my doctor about the detox program and I know my mother in law is praying for me as well. Since deciding to go with the Suboxone, I've been talking like crazy to the Lord. I really feel his presence with me and have felt almost serene. I will say this though..... I've been doing absolutely NOTHING. In fact, I'm still in my jammies and my middle son and I have spent the day hanging out in my bedroom watching stupid old movies. Thank goodness I don't have a job to go to because I can see where that would be a problem. While I don't feel badly, I certainly don't want to be ANYWHERE except my bed at the moment.
If I feel like venting later, I'll post again, if not, I'll be here tomorrow to share how the remainder of my evening went.
Thanks to all who've emailed me. I sure appreciate everyone's comments and information.
