Well I really don't feel bad today besides consistently sneezing . Did I get lucky this time? I want to think that but don't want too get too excited about it yet. I am wondering was I not on them long enough to experience bad withdrawals. Been on since jan6th. What's going on????
Remember everybody is different. Just because my day 2 was the worst does not mean yours will be. Don't let the anxiety get the better of u. You might wake up feeling bad or u might wake up and feel ok. I don't know how to stress this enough but listen to your own body. Don't make what Wikipedia says about withdrawal cause u to have symptoms that are not there. I hope u understand. I was reading when I was detoxing about someone saying they had a headache. Next thing u know I did. Prayers for ya. Try to sleep when u can praying for ya. Keep it up. There is light at the end of that tunnel. And u will be a better person for it.
sorry "and keep on posting..My hands r shaky tonight.lol
I wish I would have stopped at the tabs 2 years ago when I realized my addiction had taken over where my pain began.. I remember when I would run out.By day 4 I would really start to feel better.But,sadly I always got more or my script before day 5.I didnt sleep,eat,and felt like crap...U got this,U r winning..U r strong,U keep on going I keep on posting..
Sorry I was cut off to run to the br.. Jeeze.. I should hv a world record on that by now.lol.. The aftercare is a very important step in this process of taming our addictions.We fight everyday to overcome all our emotions.I am in night 12 about to start my day 12 and it hit my like a rock earlier.I feel that everything I could do I can no longer do..But,the sad fact is,I will be ok and be able to survive when it is over.U too will survive u have us....
Thanks I am just reading posts here and staying motivated I don't think the worst has hit yet considering I am only about 30 hours into it. I am really scared because I know its going to peak soon
Congrats on taking your life back again.U r not worthless and u r almost there. Keep going and keep posting...
You can get through this. Hot baths for me were a god send. I took like 6 a day or more the first 2 days. Try not to clock watch. When u can go on a walk go anywhere when u can. Sitting at home did not help me. Keep you mind occupied. I'm pulling for ya. I'm at 4 weeks tomorrow and I know u can do this. Keep up the good work and don't give in. Everything will come back in time and you will be u again.
Thanks guy I guess I got all the sleep I am getting for the night. I seem to forget these horrid withdrawal s until I am going through them
For many of us, day three of detox was a turning point, so hang in there! I told myself it was like a bad "flu" and I babied myself accordingly. My emotions were all over the place so I put big decisions on hold and just tried to make it through each hour, minute, moment to moment sometimes. I kept focused and how good it was being free of the demon pills. We all stumble in our lives, that does not make you worthless, it means you are human. Be proud of yourself! You have shown great courage in coming here and admitting that you have been through this four times before. But you are HERE! Sadly some never make it.
No sad faces now! This is the very best thing in the whole world! You're taking your life back and like you said, this is going to be your LAST w/d. Yay! Crying is so very normal right now. It's like the emotional runs. Your feelings have been numb and all stopped up! Let the tears flow. It's therapeutic. And speaking of the runs, make sure to take 1 or 2 immodium until it stops and drink tons of water. Hang in there, keep posting and remember you are NOT worthless! You are worth everything it takes to beat this demon! Congratulations on day 2 and fight like hell! When you feel better we need to talk aftercare. Keep going!
