13th day

So ends my 13th day!  I found myself taking my restless legs med and thinking...hmmm, nope not gonna change my brain just my legs....damn!  LMAO!  Not really wanting a pill, but the need is still there!  Biggest problem is boredom...gotta find me a hobby that does not include a cloudy brain.  Man, that is gonna be a lot of work!  I better get busy.  Have a good night and remember each hour free is an hour saved!

Thanks for all the kind support it meant the world.

Well, I am going to have to come up with something new.  TV bores me now, I can't even watch most shows now (well there are one or two I can still watch :) and my online games are boring.  I retired almost a year ago and was in such a fog..I did not realize how boring I was becoming.  I need to fix this.

I am proud that you are looking at taking a pill the way you are.  I don't think you relapsed.  I really believe you will someday go without any pills.  I believe I will too.  Just takes TIME!  ONE DAY AT A TIME!!!  

STAY POSITIVE!!!  YOU HAVE A WEEK MORE THAN ME!!!

Are you taking the vitamins- Multi/b6 vitamin C, Calcium and Magnesium? Calcium and Magnesium 1000mg at bedtime helps with rls, calms and relaxes and helps with sleep. L-theanine if your still having some anxiety.

A hobby, hmmm, you can play mafia wars, LoL!
