Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement and for sharing your stories. I have visited the MD, threw away the Valium, and am now just battling this WD on my own. Everyone hates WD. It definitely sucks. However, I am forcing myself out of bed, taking small steps each day toward recovery, and using my NA journal-which has been a big help. I just hate the feelings of despair and sadness and the headaches. The rest I can tolerate, as annoying as the symptoms are. I am determined to quit this time for good though and hearing everyone else's advice and shared similar stories has given me hope for the future that things will be ok....
