What's going on?

[renee95]

Its been 18days. I have had a few really rough days. Crying my eyes out and then gorgeing myself in every little peice of food I can get my hands on. This is not my first rodeo here so why am I acting so ridiculous. Its just unreal how easily upset I am getting. Not very inspiring.

It gets better, Renee, the withdrawal is tough and our emotions go all over the place, hang in there, one day at a time and be kind to yourself.

The good part, this should be declining in the next few days to a week.

We call this period of a quit the roller coaster.

Nothing that is good,great etc. is easy. I still struggle with the emotional roller coaster. I just give into it,I don't fight it anymore.Actually seems to help when I just let it all out!!!! This help's me tremendously. I know you can do this,we all can do this together. keep reading,reading,n writing,what ever it takes for you to quit the nastie's!!! Do this for YOU!!! You deserve this. One day at a time.One foot in front of the other. Peace to you,Deborah...

18 days is a GO!  Inspired.  When I had quit for 2 years before, I remember taking it so easy--being kind and gentle with myself.  Sleeping and resting as needed, being emotinoal, writing.  Hang in there--it does get better--I know this intellectually, emotionally, I am not there right now--still struggling to get on a quit stay.  I want 18 days!!!  Thank you for your post--being real and keeping it real is the only way we can get through this crappy addiction.
