Day 18----Hurray

My question for the day is this ---- If I feel so good after day 18 why did I take these durugs for 2-3 years?  I took a tezaperm (SP) last night and I got several hours sleep...about 7 to be exact....I actually fell asleep before i took any thing only to wake up in an hour or so...same pattern as had been occuring.  But I then took a pill (i hate how that sounds) and I slept........ Today I felt signifigantly less anxious than previous days.

It's 8 pm and i feel good.......this has been a long haul and with the support of this board I have made it this far...thanks to all of you for your support and kind words of encouragement.....

If you mean temazepam, which is the generic name for Restoril, then please be advised that it is a benzo. And addictive. Use in moderation, please.

congrats on day 18 that is a huge accomplishment and takes alot of will power, glad to hear you are doing well. keep up the good work, you can help so many by being a strong person and a good example. I hope every day gets better and better. sleep seems to always be my biggest hang up but a sleeping pill regulated every now and then i guess can be helpful.
