Me too. I probably can tell you minute details of every freaking inch of my bathroom. Hahaha. Gross yea but true.
Iām so glad you slept, even a little. Everyday it gets better physically. Iām finding out that just about the time most physical symptoms leave, the mental just creeps in and smackes you on the face !!! I hate everyone and everything right now BUT Iām sober, we are sober, so the battle continues. I can say that this mental is more bearable than when I was usingā¦ But it still really sucks. Do you have a plan in place for your sobriety ?
Hey ssup, I hope you are doing super awesome. Well tbh, I have seen so much negativity last few years, I am kind of desperate now. Also I am alive after doing such insane things over such long period of time so who knows what i can do if I stay sober. I just regret that i couldāve started it earlier nonetheless I am happy that I am finally doing it. I am a little better today,my legs are still misbehaving but way less than ever. And you what that too without medicines. In last few days I often thought this will not end anytime soon or not end at all.
I really really appreciate how you guys take out time to reply and motivate me. I will check in here to share whatās going on.
My primary plan is to get back to work asap. But I made a point that I will not rush as well. I will do small freelance works before getting into a studio fulltime. I will try to relocate as well.
I will start working out again. I loved to lift weights and i guess i will feel great if i hit the squat rack. I always wanted to learn kick boxing, finally i think i can do it. I am strongly advised to do so by my Dr as well.
Mainly the plan is to keep myself busy,tired and focus on my recovery, attend meetings etc.
I donāt want to make any long term plans now cause I dont think I can handle the pressure of following up. May be after 5-6 months I will rethink bout the plans but not now.
Thatās a great plan.
Hi everyone, I am doing better though I still have the sleep issues. Rls is lot less but canāt really sleep. Feeling drowsy throughout the day.
Worked a little today and the difficulties are way less than before. Basically, starting the work is a big hurdle cause i am feeling low on energy and sleepy. If I can pass that initial block, things are not even half bad.
So happy for you. I know sleep is an issue but it will come. Keep us posted ! You did this, keep it up
Great! The tiredness will unfortunately hang on for a awhile. Stay hydrated and take your vitamins!
Hows it going? Just wanted to check in on you.
The sleep will come after time. That 4 hrs of crappy sleep will turn to 4 hours of quality sleep at about 30 days. Then u will gain about an hour every 30 days. Hang in there! Everyday your getting closer to freedom

Its getting better day by day. No doubt, loving it.
Anything there to try for sleeping?any supplements or anything?
Yeah i am drinking 4 litters of water plus having a lot of juicy fruits. Having iron, folate, magnessium and zync supplements with multivitamin everyday.
Can I take some creatine monohydrate with whey or something?
I m glad you did. Its going smoothly so far except sleep. Any sleep aid you know?
If i start a little heavy workout will it help? My back is fine now according to reports and i can lift weights again. Also, can I take some whey and creatine to combat this tiredness?
Iām not familiar with that supplement. The whey would be ok for protein and amino acids though.
Okay. There are others like branched chain amino acids etc. I am just getting hungrier day by day so thought i would try chocolate milk with whey. I am just impulsively eating but I am not thinking much bout it. Just had a full tub of ice cream and I can easily have one more. Are there any generalised food recommendations for this stage?
Lol Iām not the person to ask on this one. Bill is better at eating than me! When I got sober my motto was āI eat and drink anything as long as itās not alcohol!ā
I ate my ass off in the begininng of detox. I work in construction doing comcrete work so i get plenty of exercise. It helps dont get me wrong but more so for energy and keeping motivatedā¦
What bout creatin mono? I am asking this because I used to have it and it gave me immense immediate burst of energy. I am so low on energy so i was considering it.
