Sleep is so precious while detoxing

I slept for 12 hours.  I can't believe it.  I am half way there.
I feel sick but my anxiety is gone and I am so grateful to everyone who was there for me yesterday.
Every response kept me sane.  It was one hell of a day but I think the harder it is the more likely you are to never forget it. Not that I wish it on anyone but wow.  I was ready to confess every sin and pray for forgiveness.
I am feeling really weak today and nauseous but all to be expected.  
I will try and post as much as I can unless you're sick of me lol.
Thanks again.  You wonderful people.

Let me know if you need any more imaginary guns.

That's a great sign, Pat! Lol, I am almost looking at making it through work like making it through detox... one day at a time. So far they have left me alone, but there's that part of me that thinks about the calm before the storm. I am NOT going to let them get to me, though.

I am so glad you are doing better. Now maybe you will be able to start working on your marketing strategy! I'm willing to bet a lot of people would buy those Secret Detox kits!

Hugs,

Minn

Crazy, crazy detox.  shhh its a secret.
I don't know what is going on but I don't feel too bad today.  I am almost afraid to post this because all hell may break loose.
My stomach is growling from hunger instead of well you know.
I was so afraid because yesterday was so bad.  I don't know what's to come but I sure didn't expect this after yesterday.
I am hanging in anyway.
Hugs to all.

Oh Sara you really made me laugh.  It feels good and I am looking forward to alot more laughter. You don't want to hear my sins.  I think I told my life story yesterday though minus the sins.  I went to my supplier and got crackers.  I don't know how much she is going to charge for half a box of stale Wheat thins but they still taste good lol.
Seemed strange to be getting food off of her but they have to be cheaper than drugs.

I am just trying to work up the energy to go down and find something to eat.  Nothing is appealing right now.  I wish I had thought of stocking up on crackers.  That's about all that sounds appealing right now.
