day3

Hi All! Well..Today is day3. I can honestly say that the past 2 days have been the hardest days i've ever faced in my life. I feel like i am in a fog that will not clear. I cant stay awake for anything. I have 3 kids and i know those of you who have kids can imagine what its like to try to get through the day with 3 kids when all you want to do is stay in bed and hide under the covers till sometime next year..lol.I just try to keep in mind that this will end and what is at the end of this is so worth every second of the fight. I just pray i can keep up the fight till i get there cause..man is this hard! I want to thank you all for being so kind and encouraging to me. I cant tell you how much that has inspired me to keep going.

Keep hanging in there! Always remember that it will get better! Just take it a day at a time or even a hour at a time. I always told myself not to let the last few days go to waste because one day I know I'd have to deal with it again. The amount of time dealing with withdrawals is so short. Such a small amount of time to get the rest of your life back! You will make it through this! Best of luck!

you will start to feel better around day 6, but yes, coming off coke is a process and it takes time to heal. as i told you day 11 was a big turning point for me because that was a five year record, lol. i think if your really serious about this, and i know you are you should post everyday for the first week, YOU CAN'T BREAK and with support and talking about it, you won't fail. that dosen't mean it's not tough, it's the toughest thing in your life you will ever have to do, but soon you will look back and be so proud of yourself and beating something like coke will give you more strength in your life than you ever had and i know you know that. lori, your doing great and your appoach to staying clean is different than last time, it's better. i know lately ive been on you a lot and tell you things that you don't want to hear, but i do it because i care and as you say, yes sometimes im a big MEANIE, lmao. keep going, this too shall pass

coming off of long term  cocaine use will lead to lots of sleepy days. i think it is all the REM sleep we lost when using. if our sub concious never gets to hit rem because of the drugs, then when we are off them , it tends to want to stick in rem sleep for a minute. it can and does get better, you will find that after a week you will be sleeping less, and have  more energy!  keep focused on the end goal, you can do this, ya know im here for ya if ya need me. much love.......
