Don't be afraid of the symptoms as they come... EMBRACE THEM AS PART OF COMIN BACK TO LIFE! and learn in to FEEL again... I promise it gets better...
Hi! I'm Bradley... Rosy started a nickname round here n they call me HULK now lol... but anyways I'm not on as much anymore but I just passed up 5 months clean from 75 mgs of methadone a day after shatter in my heels n ankles over 4 years ago... Only tell you that because I want you to know that any things possible and if you don't believe me go read my original post I've come quite a ways most around here say and s have you and you will continue to do so... Never look back because finding yourself again and learning to live is a very precious "high" in iitself, when it gets hard just remember it gets easier and that lives too short to live in a zombie like state... When people come to my funeral I want them to remember who I AM, not what the drugs made me and never ever forget that... I am here if u have questions or wanna talk message me or send me a note and I will get back to u... U got this buddy n us here at me help we got your back! Sing it loud "I WONT BACK DOWN" "IM NOT AFRAID" lol... two of my "get me thru" jams...
Yes this week WILL show its beautiful self! Love that! Keep up the great work!
great point, yea that could very well be a culprit also, I need more water/gator aid.. thanks for the advice! the swelling comes in waves also so im thinking im still detoxing..lol but this week will show it beautiful self ;)
thanks ms delight, You know what im doing tonight, yep i got my 2 pillows from my couch and will be using them in my room tonight ;)
Hey if you sleep with your head elevated on 2 pillows it will decrease the swelling when you wake up. Just a thought!
If you don't normally eat take out food, it's most likely all the sodium causing bloating and swelling.
Try to order healthier foods if you can, drink lots of water to flush out as much as you can and try n get all your good vitamins and minerals. Keep an eye on the swelling though. If it goes on too too long, you may want to get checked out.
You're doing great. Keep focused and goal oriented.
Stay strong!
You can do this...for good!
Stay away from salty processed foods and drink plenty of water! Almost two weeks that is great! You got this my friend!
