Thank you so much, have looked into it since my post and we have WiFi (so prepare to be spammed by images of the Peak District 
) Seriously though, it should really help.
Just spotted your other post about always being on the go before. People like that are apparently prone to getting chronic fatigue. Makes it so hard as you are having to accept the limitations when your brain is screaming to be active. I had a lot of success with the lightning process. Wishing you strength.
Love this, need it now!
LOL - iām excited now ā canāt wait for the pics. Will be like we went with you 
lightening process? will have to check into this - thanks love - appreciate it. I know you are going through similar fatigue issues. Hope you are able to kick back and just have a blast.
Gym before work this morning, quiet day at work for a change so decided to continue clearing out things in the house I havenāt used for so long when I got in tonight.
Hope everyone having a good Monday!
@SoberWalker changes in barometric pressure are my biggest trigger for migraines as far as I can tell. I donāt have a migraine today but itās getting close - just bad sinus and ear pressure/inflammation at the moment. The things that help me the most are cold packs and hiding in my basement where it is cooler and possibly more balanced in pressure. I used to take some prescription meds but they really seemed to stop working and I have a doctorās appointment to revisit that this week. My husband did some research on supplements but I havenāt tried many yet, I take the basic multivitamin, B complex, magnesium. He actually did buy me some Feverfew, Butterbur root extract and something called MigShield with CoQ10, magnesium and riboflavin but I need to look into all of these myself so Iām not combining too many things or over doing any repeat ingredients. It makes me a bit nervous but I think I will talk to my doctor about them first. Itās all so frustrating. I definitely feel your pain, anyone who deals with migraine and frequent headaches.
I just want to thank you for answering so many people on here. Taking the time to check in with everyone is encouraging and gives folks connection thatās lacking for many, especially as we struggle to overcome our addictions. Really appreciate what you bring to the table on this chat!
Day 205.
Itās been a few days since my last check-in. Iāve been reading but been too sick to actually post anythings coherent.
So after having the best day ever on Wednesday, I woke up on Thursday feeling like death warmed up. My periods are so painful they practically bedbound me for the first day. Itās bad. Really fucking bad. Yes, I need to see a doctor about it. I will. Soon.
By Saturday I was feeling ok, even spent the morning visiring this cool medieval festival with my husband. Life was all good again for a few hours and thenā¦ BAM! Food poisoning. Yes, food poisoning. And not just usual nausea and being sick from both ends food poisoning. Noooo. I also had the chills followed by a fever. With added constant nausea.
I hate the chills. My poor husband was cranking up the heating and giving me all his warm clothes and wrapping me up in the duvet and I was still freezing cold.
Anywhoā¦ yesterday I was drifting in and out of sleep all day. Today we moved countries. Travelling while still feeling ill was an experience. Especially having to do it without food or caffeine. Because my tummy is still delicate, I gotta stick to bland stuff for a few days.
Butā¦ Iām alive! I survived food poisoning and Iām still sober.
Funnily enough, today Iāve been feeling the same way I would normally feel on a bad hangover. Isnāt it completely insane how I used to do this shit to myself on purpose?!
I sometimes try breathing exercises, and very soon my mind will run around 
Day 310
Took my first dose of the supplement when arriving home 4 hours ago and oof 
My mind went silent, I was calm. No racing thoughts, no skin picking (major win!). I went for a shower, cooked a meal (ate all of it tho so tomorrow Iāll have to buy something in the grocery store for lunch 
) and did watch 3 episodes of a show I like at the moment. Only watching, no cellphone and doomscrolling while watching.
I have warm hands and feet and my muscles are relaxed. I took only half of the dosage you start with, didnāt want to risk falling asleep on the couch while dinner is cooking.
I hope Iāll have a good night, see you tomorrow fam 
Have a beautiful sober day, stay strong 
That sounds amazing, hope it continues for you 
Ugh 
. Good poisoning is horrible, only had it once but Iāll never forget I. Feel better soon.
