Morning Jack!
Glad you are feeling better. Physical exercise is so helpful, but most are unable to exercise during the beginning of withdrawal. I could barely get up, a jumping jack was out of the question!
Keep on keeping on! I can suggest that you surround yourself with a good support system..of your choice. I believe it is essential for STAYING clean.
Glad you are feeling good. When you were going thru withdrawal, did you ever survive on 1 to 3 hours of sleep a night? That's what I'm going thru now. I had an appointment with the gym trainer that I cancelled cause I'm feeling so lousy. Do you work out even with little or no sleep?
I most definitely have went through the 1 - 3 hours sleep and around day 4, NO sleep. I finally just got up, took a shower and went on with my miserable day. I figured I would definitely get a good night sleep the next night. WRONG...I slept like 3 hours and not even that sound...to me, that has been the most frustrating part because I have to move on with the realities of life...like work? I did have to use one day and a half of sick time from work however. Was I able to work out at that point? Well, I was probably able but I did not...yesterday was the first day I worked out since stopping opiate use. I have to credit this forum and another individual's rough day I met on here for helping me find the insentive to take that first step in excersizing. I hope my successes AND struggles can help others as well. By NO means am I even close to being "out of the woods" yet...in fact, I hope I know better than to ever think I "beat" this. PEACE
Hey there IBKleen. Thank for your encouragement. I would echo the last part of the note I just wrote to Summer123. PEACE
