Feeling better

[doglovernan]

Day 25!!!!!  Having more good days than bad.  But I did have a couple of really bad days when I thought I would cave in.  Somehow, I got through it.  I am very happy to be where I am today and wish everyone out there that is going through this, the strength and faith to stay the course.  Unfortunately, I have gained a few pounds since I've quit the pills.  I guess I'm compensating with food.  I'm not going to worry about that now.  Just keep pushing forward.

I gained some weight as well. I was eating all night instead of sleeping. Things will level out for you, and you will return to a normal diet.

CONGRATS on your clean time!

Day 25 - excellent!
As far as the temptation that sometimes comes along with our bad days, you should be proud of yourself for not giving in. Every time you get through a bad day (such is life) without meds, you've got another thing to look back on and feel good about yourself and your strength. Now on to day 30, 60, 90, etc.

Are you tapering the meds?  Takes longer but for me was easier than cold turkey.  Keep trying.  It took me 4 attempts to get this far.  I wish you the best.

Keep it up.  Each day clean is a gift.  I promise the cravings get easier as I started to do things and not just sit in my chair and numbly watch TV and zone out.  Congrats!!!!!
