Curious how the wd is going ? Anyone ?
I am not craving at all anymore. Weird....I don't even hate the smell of it when i pull into the garage....I just don't feel anything at all.... I'm avoiding people who smoke except my husband...because well he lives here....we're still not in therapy as a couple yet but i told him i was done with the marriage and then i bought myself a new car....I continue with my education, writing an essay on Reiki and crystal therapy, doing a power point presentation about it in a couple of weeks.... and my meditation circles keep me happy and I'm getting used to going out and doing things by myself....met some really great people through facebook and love that Jamv and JoJo are there too...
i have regular visits with spirit which is very soothing for me.
I'm exercising every day and eating my spinache:-) I'm into cinnamon tea now...sooo good
I am also down to 50 mg of the ad and 25 mg of the seroquel working with my doctor. had a few nights where i woke up at 4:30 am though...just soaked in the tub and back to bed to sleep in .....I have the luxury of staying at home so I'm sure those of you who don't have that luxury hate me....I can't imagine what it's like for you to be tired all the time at your jobs...I'm sorry..I'm sure it'll get better...I wish you well...and continue sending...
Love and light,

hey ww,
I have been checkin in here from time to time. I am doing fairly well, am down to 2. 5 mg of my A/D and hope to be free of it by the end of the month. I am getting used to the withdrawal of that.
I have no desire for pot anymore, but havent been put in a situation or should i say put myself in a situation that i would be tempted.
the reduction in alcohol is a miracle since getting off the paxil. i still have a drink from time to time, but rarely more than once a week and then it may just be one or two.
i feel pretty good about the progress i am making, but still need to work on living for today and putting the past behind me.
glad you are well.

Wow ! You definitely should feel good about the progress, I'm really proud of you friend....:-) keep on truckin' and I do understand about the past stuff...I'm still seeing a counsellor separately about that.....
The biggest thing I've noticed is how strong I feel physically as well since tapering off the meds....
oh and hubby is now looking for "healthy stuff for potheads who still want to use", so we're going to a health show tomorrow....:-)

Hi WonderWoman
I am new on the site and have read your posts! You sound like an awesome person and I am proud of you for staying off the smoke, and for all the support you give to other people on the site!
Hope we can chat and perhaps you can help me out too! I have had hectic headaches - are these part of the detox process??
Look forward to chatting soon!

Hello Zimbo,
I have had headaches for so many reasons (addictions, stress, detox, chinook winds, energy vampires lol) over the years. The most recent was for three days off and on. I drank alot of tea, took alot of baths, lit candles, did Reiki, talked to my fish (I just bought the cutest purple beta for my bedside), stayed away from the tv and stuck lavendar essential oil on a tissue in my my pillow case. :-)
If you take a moment for yourself and ask yourself what YOU need, the answer will come.
Sometimes it's a tylenol and a nap.
Find out who you are, you are worth it.
Love and light,
Diana
