Cold Turkey Quit, no taper.

Wanted to throw a small update out while I’ve got some time.

If you have sent me a message in the last 3 days I did finally answer you Smile I’m sorry for the delayed replies.

Day 39 –

I’ve realized in the past few days my recovery is still….a recovery. I’m still dealing with some shit-fabulous sleep throughout the night. I’d say most days I’m able to get about 3-5 hours of sustained sleep, and than about 75% of the time I’m able to fall back asleep rather easily. I do still have some rather atrocious nights where that is not the case.

The withdrawal symptom I’ve not given much credit too, but has become progressively more annoying would have to be IBS. It’s not really let up very much even nearly 40 days out. I’m going to try adding fiber pills to my diet to see what happens with things.

I’ve also noticed malaise has been effecting me lately. I’m quite lazy and don’t like to do anything. It’s annoying but nothing to write home about. I am patiently waiting for motivation to get back to the correct levels.

Other then those three things and some random anxiety here and there I’m doing quite well. Things are getting progressively better. I’m impatient and would love for everything to be fixed immediately, alas It’s never that easy though.

As I sit here and feel my stomach rumbling letting me know I’m about to expell breakfast I still can enjoy the fact I’ll be emotionally satisfied with my recovery.

That’s 40 days in a nutshell.

Back to work…

Much love
