You need counseling dude. Congrats on 10 days. Keep up the good fight my friend
Hey Brent, this is all part of it my friend. How long are you going to be on the Librium..Dude you don't want to get addicted to that mess. Okay, you may want to see about getting on a different a/d if the Paxil isn't working. I don't have all of the answers for your depression but this is the time of year that depression is at it's highest, plus you are fresh out of w/d. It is probable that you are having PAWS right now. Get as much excercise as you can, it does help and take some good vitamins. Give it time, you'll get better soon enough. I know it seems like the days are far too long right now, but take the good with the bad.... Hang in here man...
Hi Brent, I could be mistaken but I think it's too soon for Paws.
I'm guessing you're going through the adjustment phase of being clean. These things just take time. One morning you will wake up and feel pretty good. You might not even realize it at first. Then it will just dawn on you that feel better than you have in ages.
I wish that day for you soon.
Love, Kat

It's still pretty soon for everything to be all rosey and s h i t. Try meditations or journeling when you first get up. Write down everthing that comes in to your head. I've found that it really helps me figure out why I'm feeling the way I do.
Hang in there Brent. This too shall pass.
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change...the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.
Say it over and over..

Brent,
Hey dude!!! First thing,keep in mind,as I have told you before,sobriety is a process. It is not an event.Look back at your progress,brother,where you are now as compared to where you were.YOU ARE DOIN IT!!! Give yourself credit,because as all that visit this site can attest to,as well as yourself,it will take time,but it will come.Someone said before that you are only 10 days or something into it,so try to look at that fact as a small victory,a battle won.Can you re,ember the last time you stayed clean for 10 days by free will? Tah is no small feat!!
.And I NEED to offer you a suggestion,do with it what you will; The Librium you are taking can lead to depressive symptoms.It is,by definition,a "downer".And too much of it can cause dependance,and,more importantly in your case, depression.And depression goes hand in hand with what you are going thru,you don't need any help with it.So,if it helped during the withdrawal,then it served it's purpose.It may be time to leave that stuff alone,and let the Prozac work its wonders.
I hope I don't sound like I am preaching,I am trying to help.You were the first person who's posts I read on this site,and we are,in a way,getting clean together.I have 33 days,Dude,and I feel better with every sunrise,and pray you get there soon as well! Stay strong,Keep your eye on the prize,and have Hope for a better tomorrow.God Bless.

Brent, I am 12 days clean and I suffer from deppression as well. I hope it doesn't last. I got up this morning and just tried to stay as busy as I could. Good luck.
