Hey guys
Sorry i havent posted in a while. So my dr never called me back yesterday. I went to the store and got tylenol pm. I think i may have slept 4 or 5 choppy hours. But im left very groggy this morning so i may not take that anymore. I am going to buy some valerian root today and see if that helps. Im so happy the weekend is here. I hope by mon, it will be 2 weeks, things will improve more and more
Peace

Things will get better. I think it took me about 3-4 weeks before the sleeping thing was back to somewhat normal. The good news is it gets a little better every day and you are most definitely past the worst of it.
Take care

Cool frank I definetly needed to hear that. I feel not soo hot today, buit i was eating breakfast and I said to myself if this is the worse from here on out I will be just fine. almost 2 weeks is a lot of clean time, well not a lot but certainly a start
Oh no Dog
2 weeks is great and it is most definitely a lot of time. After 2 weeks for me I was really starting to feel the life come back to me. You will too I'm sure.
You have a great day Dog. What you've done is so good.
Frank
Hey Dog...it will get better, day after day. It takes time for our bodies and minds to repair the damage, so be patient.
You will eventually sleep as well. Try not to worry about it so much. Relax with a hot bath at least an hour before bed. Read a book and try to go to bed early enough to allow yourself to relax without the worry of not being able to get enough sleep.
Hang in there..

just think, non-addicts have bad days too. they dont always sleep well and when they feel like crap they just have some coffee, something to eat, and head out the door. they get on with their days---just like we have too. try not to think/analyze it so much. just get up and go
Firesign that makes a lot of sense. I did get up and go today. I didnt sleep well, but i had some. I got up, drank tea, cofee still makes the wds come out to play. But your right, you have to just live life.
Right?
Im not gonna take that benedryl anymore, i have such medicine head this morning

i forgot one thing that works with me for sleep that cowgirl wrote and that is
READ A BOOK!!! yes that your answer for now. take a hot bath with only a candle on(no lights), then grab a book and read in bed or wherever. that always lulled me to sleep. oh and dont forget the warm milk and honey. sorry you have a medicine head--thats the worst. youll get better--are you working this weekend?
