To LostinLaLaLand - It was the best decision I have made. No longer will I not have accountability in this area. I need help and have hid my struggle for too long. I urge you to do whats tough. We will always justify and lie to ourselves. Do it for your future and for those who love you!!
hey...i was railing 20-30 roxi's a day for about a year. just finished rehab, starting aftercare.
It takes about a week before sleep returns. some people can have persistant withdrawal symptoms, but it is USUALLY pyschosomatic. Kick yourself in the ass and get active. Exercise is essential because you need to wear yourself out to sleep. Really.
please please please commit this experience to your memory. If your brain is anything like mine, we cannot take mind altering substances in anyway. It will awaken the beast, so to speak, and you will eventually find your way back to your DOC.
it gets better
