day 3

[a$hamed-no-more]

well - day 3 is almost over and this was one of the longest days of my life. today was really tough for me. even though i slept pretty good last nite (minus the spasms that lasted a good hour before i finally fell asleep) - i woke up feeling really weak and as though my entire body was weightless. at one point i felt as though i was going to pass out in the parking lot. i went to accupuncture and could not sit still for nothing...just sat there with needles in my neck and my body spasming - not comfortable! anyway - i'm craving pretty badly, feel exhausted and tired and pretty much like a loser! it's been a rough day.......at least it's almost over!

Bravo.  Truly... bravo.

The fact you even WENT to your acupuncturist is a feat in itself on day 3.  Tomorrow will be so much better...  I had to go to the doc on Day 2, and I had that same "pass out" feeling all day... I wanted to die.  And trust me, the only reason I went that day was because if I didn't it would have been moved to forever and a day... or there's no way in heck I woulda gone.

Anyway, you're getting there, friend.

As for the cravings, two things:  they WILL pass.  Also, do you REALLY ever want to feel this way again? Ever?  I think not.  When you think about taking a pill, remember this.  I even wrote down in my journal how MISERABLE my w/d's were when I was going thru them - what they felt like, what I felt like - so I would NEVER ever forget it.  You may wanna jot a few notes...  You don't want to go thru this again.

Congrats on Day 3... :-)
