30 days clean!!

[Real180]

Wow, I didn't realize it until now that I hit the 30 day milestone of being clean -- It's truly amazing that when I look back on the first days of WDs how I thought I would remain in that dark, sweaty, sleepless, skin jumping, legs hopping mind F... state for the rest of my life. Then I think about the next 10 or so days and how each day I felt better but still I still felt with depression, and erratic sleep and mood swings still thinking that I would be like that the rest of my life! Then I think about hitting day 20 and that's when it really turned and I began to see my old self, despite enduring a knee and ankle injury pill free, I proved to myself that this could be done and I can truly live a life without the pills!!! Now at day 30 (outside of my knee and ankle) I feel almost like myself, and this is a feeling no drug can duplicate.. I hope some people that are just starting the process read this because it's so important to know that each day is worth fighting for even in the deepest darkest hour, and the simple line that you see posted over, and over again on this forum is "it gets better" and it's tough to relate to it when you've been on a week long mind **** with no sleep -- but it's true, not an easy truth to come by, but it's the raw truth -- thank you for all of your help and support!!!!

Thank you. I am just beginning and in that deep, dark place that I feel like I will be in forever. It helps to read this. :)
