You need to chill out a little honey. Pots not gonna do you much good right now - just make you feel worse. Your brain is still healing. Deep breaths, lots of rest will help! You're almost through the worst of it now. How is your face? L

Hi there and major congratulations on your 6 days clean! I'm a little concerned about the facial swelling though as this isn't normally part of the detox. Could you be having an allergic reaction to food, vitamins or support meds? Keep an eye on it and take some benedryl if you need to.

Merry Christmas!!  congrats on those 6 days!  are you drinking enough water etc?   the swollen face i'm not too sure of....feeling bad at 6 days is pretty normal for most....it does get better...just hang onto that clean time you have already...get out and try some fresh air and move around as much as possible...i know it's tough but try anyway....keep close to the forum and let us know how we can help.
