lrntolive - great thread. I had balance issues for a little while when I was getting sober. Felt like I was a drunken sailor once in a while. Interesting that opiates will cause that too along with all the other crazy symptoms.
Hopefully you will start to get some sleep soon. That and the restless legs, twitching and diarrhea for awhile are crazy.
I have been sober for 19 months and I was sober for a year prior to that with my week relapse. I still go through terrible down periods and have to remember to be grateful for what I have now. The other day if I would have had drugs in my house I would have used them....it just hit me and I hate it when I get those thoughts. Sucks. Thank goodness my sobriety is very important to me!
You can do this. One day at a time! Sometimes that is what it takes.
