Aa
MY FIRST DAY
so here I am! Again.... It gets old I know but I worked last night and I woke up today to start fresh ! I did take my last one at 7 this morning but here I am again. I deleted my contacts for good , I made sure after I got ready to look and see if I had any floaters around and I don't so I am here dedicated to change and I will . I'll say it one more time, of course I'm scared but I do really want this. So let the long road begin ... Thanks to everyone that has stuck by me and put up with my stubborness. I do also work tonight and tomorrow night so therefore that will help hopefully! Just pray for me!
Hi well it usual takes around 4 days but the mental paart will start this is why aftercare is so important more people fold from the mental part the the phyical part you need to start hitting meetings in time you will loose the desire to use just hang in there keep forcing the fluids try a hot soak b/4 bed it will help it is also a good idea to rent some movies so you have something to do wile your up all night sleep will return but slowly you start with a cat nap here and there keep posting for support...................Gnarly
Please stop thinkin about "how long".......that's just going to make it worse. Think about all the cool stuff you're gonna do once this sh*tfest is over. Stop living in the dread. Look ahead positively if you can't stand being in the present ....never look to the past unless it's to help you remember that you DONT want to live back there. You CAN do this!
I don't even care how I feel physically but literally feeling the way I just was made it seem more real... Like how long do u gotta go thru this :'(
No I'm still awake just here .. I just breathed for a few minutes and turned on some music trying to just not go thru this again I feel like I'm breaking.. This is terrible.. I just wish I could sleep. :( its really hard
Hey chickie, you still here? Don't let a moment if weakness set you back millions of moments. The fact that you tore your room apart..looking....says you're really vulnerable......can you call someone? I hope you just went to sleep.
Vent, scream, cry, write, exercise, dance, bath, shower, hike, run, walk. Move, just keep moving.

Its 3 o clock in the morning I'm having a really bad time mentally I wanna scream three days in and I was dumb and literally tore up my room trying to find no I didn't find any but I literally feel like I can just go crazy its so hard my heart is racing and I just am so overwhelmed!!!! It's so hard
I'm so glad you're getting encouragement from those that are feelin for you are going through it at almost exact same time. I found that such a relief. Grats guys, you're both (all) doin freakin awesome. It's so wonderful to see peeps at the actual time of transitioning....bless you guys ...keep rockin it d/D style. Hugs
thats the way my first few days where but when it lets up it is such a heavy weight lifted of your shoulders hang in there I know you have heard this a million times but I assure you it dose get better
Thank you off work in a hr and gonna gov home and fall asleep and then I'll wake up and hopefully feel a lil better is just very tuff
Thank you I just woke feel like crap so bad... Threw up and i hate throwing up but I'm gonna alter and get ready slowly and go to work at 6 thank you and also I have the emergency packs I'm drinking so that's good!
Hi well good to see you giving it another try just stick with it and remember it is tempoary I have said this a million times but ''you just got to be ok without being ok for a wile'' the worst will be over in a few days I know you want to sleep but it is all but impossible and that is normal a hot bath is great for many of the symptoms so if it gets bad try one I took several a day try to get to meetings it will really help there is no replacement for live human interaction....keep posting for support we all want to see you win this battle.......Gnarly
Try not to focus too much on how you feel, I know, easier said than done, but I have been there and it is doable. I'd be real careful taking an addictive drug to detox, my months of diarrhea, weeks of random vomiting, year of bad sleep, all those things were worth it, as horrible as they were. I don't think I would have had the strength to quit gravol, after all that. Anyway, lets hope the day you get paid, you are feeling stronger. I know you don't have a lot of money, but here are my opinion of the essentials to heal. I would try some of these things, especially before resorting to an addictive drug, again, just my opinion.
EmergenC packets are about .75 cents each
Protein shake is about $7 for 30 servings

i don't have no money right now so I can't buy this stuff but hopefully by the time i get paid I won't need anything hopefully I'll just be better
While Gravol is effective for its intended use, several authorities, including the MD Health Forum and the Alberta Alcohol and Drug Abuse Commission (AADAC), list it as an addictive drug.
According to the AADAC, you are addicted to a drug when you become tolerant to it, dependent on using it and suffer withdrawal symptoms when you no longer take it. As you become tolerant to taking the drug, you need more of it to obtain the same effect. When you attempt to stop taking the drug you experience withdrawal symptoms, which can be severe.
Warning
The AADAC has posted a warning about the addictive effects of prolonged and large-dosage use of Gravol.
Symptoms may include depression, confusion, loss of energy, vomiting, urine retention and difficulty thinking and socializing. You can become tolerant of the drug with just a few days of use, requiring increased doses to have the same effect, If you are using it as a sleeping aid, for example, you will find difficulty in sleeping without continually increasing the amount of the drug.

Hey! Yes, the anxiety S***S! But listen to spider and just breath through it!!! You will be OK!!!! And I would suggest the gravol too....It will help with nausea and dizziness!! You dont want to get in the habit of taking someone elses meds!!!! Im pretty sure that methacarbomol is prescription only! I wouldnt mess with it if you dont have to!!! Not sleeping is no fun but rest when you can and when you are awake find something to keep your mind busy! Movies, music, medhelp etc..... Keep hanging in there!!!!!
