Into Day 4 - Feeling MUCH better

[jcrew12]

Well, I know I am supposed to stay on my thread but since I am starting to feel like a new person, I would rather start a new one:) I did not do the Thomas Recipe on Day 3 because it was just too much on my stomach. I have always had such a difficult time swallowing pills (ironic huh?) and could not do it. But today is the first day I am taking the l-tyrosine. I definitely notice a difference in my energy level. I am not dreading working and taking care of my babies today...yesterday was hell....but I want to remember that day. I go see my counselor next week and am excited to learn new coping strategies or heck, just to cry to someone who doesn't know me (I never cry). I read EVERY single post on here even though I do not post much and it has truly been a blessing. This too, is my first time on a forum and I cannot tell you how reading the support is getting me thru the w/ds and the guilt. I AM going to do this time, no option. I want to function like a normal Mom, not SUPER MOM, but a normal pill-free Mom...and I know I can do it. Your supportive messages have meant a lot to me...thank you all :)
