I'm new as well, but there are some really supportive people here on this forum.  Reach out whenever you're feeling weak and I think you'll get some great advice.

Good luck!

HI Robert welcome to the forum.. congratulations on your decision to quit.. the wd will last about 7 days our so everyone is different.. the worst will be around day 3 and 4.. Hot baths and showers will be a great help with the rls and pains.. as many as you can.. a pain reliever like tylenol. our aspirin. not sure what you have where you are at..try to force yourself to drink water.. a sports drink even a product for the elderly a liquid meal with all the vitamins. you do not want to get dehydrated.. You can do this !! It is good you have the Valium it will help with the anxiety also walking move.. force yourself it will also help.. by next sat you will be tired and a lil weak also may have a few residual side effects from the wd.. the biggest is depression but with the right attitude support.. You can get by this.. Your girl sounds special :) I wish you well.. keep posting reaching out for support.. lesa
