HELP to those in detox this is majorly helping me

I had a rough nite, rough morning so iwalked an hour and still no relief so i found a music channel on the tv and i am currently jamming out to the 90's singing and dancing around my family room cleaning and looking like a total fool and i dont care.  but it made me remember who i was, i found out that i used to love music and it gave me the happy adrenalin rush i needed and i feel lots better.  So dont just sit there DO SOMETHING that's going to make you happy and MOVE.  Really helped me. GOod luck.

Thanks mama! Glad to see you are doing well. I survived 1/2 day at work and then my head began killing again and chills set it. So here I lay in bed til I get warm. I have managed to move here and there, til I get zapped of energy.
Anyhow, enough about me. Yay you!!!

I know it seems like you just CAN'T get up, but i promise you if you get up andmove and get your heart beating you WILL feel better I PROMISE.  I think that is why the detox hasn't been like so many other's it's because I have such bad case of the ants in the pants and i cant sit or lie still so i move, anything, went up and down basement stairs, jumping control, anything and the feelings subside ALOT.  I'm not in good shape but i MADE myself do it and really  it helps.  and it makes your heart beat faster and pumped bllood faster and your processing the drugs out faster, at least that's my theroy anyway.  Keep going and goood luck!

Thanks for the boost!  I found myself in the livingroom after my last post dancing with my daughter and singing. We are a musical family. My hubby plays guitar and sings at small venues, my 4 y.o. loves her guitar, my 15 y.o. plays drums, I play violin and sing, and my soon to be 19 y.o. plays guitar too. After typing that out, "By George", I'm gonna break out my violin! Havens touched it in nearly 2 yrs!!!
