DAY 6 and singing in the shower!!

Thanks everyone for all your posts day 3 was probably the worst,  it was something that I never thought I would ever get through it was like the night of day 3 my anxiety, pain, insomnia, everything peaked the 3rd day. Day 4 I found myself singing in the shower, amazing today on the 6th day I feel sharp, ready to start the day I walked for 1 Hour and was sitting on the couch hungry, starving at dinner time.  I could not have done this by myself and you all have been there for me.  THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU,  For those of you in full blown WD hang in there.  What I did some people may laugh was made myself first take my mulivitamin, Vitamin C, and Omega 3, (FISH OIL) first day I took each one 4 times in one day.  Next several day I took them morning , noon, night, drank allot of water, ate allot of fresh tomatoes probably 4-6 per day from my fresh garden.  Every night I sat in the hot tub for 30 minutes before bed, bath will work as well, amazing for those of you in the battle don't give up your days aways from starting your new life.

be careful and keep yourself safe.

i rememember dancing a little jig in the shower, squeeling with delight, and saying out loud "I made it, I made it, I made it, I made it!!!!!!!  Thank God, I made it!!!  I will NEVER do that again."

But I did do it again.  And again, and again, and again.

Getting through withdrawal is a HUGE and WONDERFUL thing.  Now you're ready to begin working on your recovery -- go to it!
