Day one: tired of waking up feeling like garbage. Tired of ruined relationships. Tired of losing jobs. Tired of going into stores and they know exactly what I’m there for. Tired.

It’s going to really suck for about a week, but come week 2 it’s so much better.
Just be aware that your emotions are going to be all over the place and you’re going to get them all in everyday for a good month while you’re brain function returns to a healthier state.
From there on buddy, it’s pretty awesome feeling and the journey really gets going.
I’ve just relapsed so I’m right there with you on it.
Stay hydrated, take a multivitamin, and get a probiotic for gut health.
Hang in there @Joseph12345
