How long does it take for your energy to come back?

Well I'm at the end of day four on my detox progress. I'm feeling alot  better today actually. My stomach still feels upset at times but it's alot better than day two & three of my detox. But I  have absoultly no energy, feels Like I don't want to do anything except be depressed about my situation. I'm a very active person & laying around isn't something I do very often. Plus I'm raising my two & a half year old son plus I'm pregnant. Just wondering maybe if it's all in my head, maybe I should push myself to be a little more happier & entergetic. What do y'all think? I just really hate feeling like doing nothing, I hate being depressed, and I just want to feel normal. Seems like I did pain pills cause it masked alot of who I was but maybe that's what I wanted.

hi congrats on 4 days clean.....the energy crash is really common so its not just you as for a time frame it verys a lot....it has a lot to do with how long you used how high a dose your age
and your ability to overcome obsticals....right now the best thing you can do is move around
get outside and go for a walk even if its just around the block it will really help try to work up to more and more exercise each day this will help get your natural endorphins flowing again
try not to get discouraged early on...it may take a wile to feel better you dident become an addict overnight you wont break free overnight ether good nutrition helps also...I started drinking whey protein shakes...2 a day...there loaded with vitamins ecental amino acids
along with the protein all of witch the brain needs to heal...you can pick up a 2lb can up at walmart for 15 bucks you just mix a scoop with a glass of milk...the chocolate flavor is good but it does come in several flavors ...this really helped my recovery and I recommend it  to everyone after you detox ..theres not one thing but rather a lot of different things combined that will help bring you out of this...keep posting for support
and congrats on your new upcoming baby...that now will be delivered clean and sober
good luck and God bless.....Gnarly

Congrats on day 4!!! That's so awesome! I myself just finished day 5! My energy level was pretty low too, but you have to push yourself a little! I made it a point to take short walks on the second day and bike rides the last 2 days. I have to say it really helped!!!!
I can only imagine being preggos too, but you're strong enough to do this!!! You're doing so awesome! Keep your chin up and heart open!!!
