there's no adequate title for my question

I'm about halfway through, Day 14 or something.  OHmg.  I'm super angry.  I feel like I was when I was angry on the stuff.  I mean, all on the stuff.  I'm shouting at the tv and my husband is not speaking to me.  I can't go anywhere.  I slept poorly and woke up in a funk and I am furious at everything and everyone.  Not you guys.  but. i look at my tapering schedule and it makes me sick.  I haven't felt this way the whole time.  i was happy and glad after so long after all this time years I would be getting it out of me.  Now I'm angry.  I don't know if I'm doing the right thing.  You wake up, you no longer have the cravings, so what?  so what?  i don't care.  I don't think I'm going to make it.  Does anyone have this experience.  I was fine.  What happened.  I want to get some in me.  Real bad.

Sorry to be such a .... pill.  My apologies to you all.  :-(

I'd say that's totally normal, unfortunately!  My emotions were all over the place.  Anger.  Resentment.  Sadness. Guilt.  Totally across the board.  You will even out in the end.  Just go easy on yourself and others, and remember that you won't get over this today or tomorrow or maybe even next week, as far as your mood goes!  Just hang in there!

You are still going to have days like that but soon it will be better .We are two different people the person we are when we are using and the person we become when we stop for the people in our lives it can be a big change just like it is for us .It all evens out but it does take time .
You will find you again and you probably will be different then even before you used so give your self time to have bad days and realize everything is changing but in the need it will for the best.
