Good for you WordGrrrl! It's a great thing you did. Isn't funny how dull and grey the world looks without our drugs? That feeling will pass though and after you will see the world in a much better light. I know from my own experiences it was like a valley. Alot of ups and downs. Prolly more downs than ups but it's strange how things seem to turn out alright when you do the right thing for yourself. Counselling is a good idea too. It helps to have someone to talk to that won't judge you. Sometimes just having someone sitting across from you and listening to as you think out aloud and correct you when your thinking is wrong is an invaluable tool. I've only seen my counselor twice and he pretty much just sits there and listens to me think out aloud and only says something when I'm way off but that sometimes has meant the difference for me personally. Anyways keep us posted and good luck!
