I don't know how to create a new post so I will try and ask my question here. I turn 50 tomorrow and quit a 10 year daily drinking habit of 1 to 2 bottles of wine 7 weeks ago. I know I have come a long, long way since the first weeks but I still feel I have lots of healing to do....healing of my brain chemistry and healing of my body through nutrition and supplements.
But even though most days I feel a little better...Some days I feel not so much and those days usually end up with me resting physically and mentally since any activity makes me feel physically ill/stressed/anxiety. I've been cleared by a doctor and currently being treated for anxiety disorder which I believe can be healed over time as my brain heals and I change how I react to life.
My question is for anyone who may understand the healing nature of the brain. I like to understand for myself the process that is occurring but my Google searches haven't really shed much light on it.
"As the brain heals and there are good days and bad days....what is happening during the bad days?"
I have speculated that the brain is actually doing some healing that is causing some discomfort but is actually a good thing....but I'm just guessing. ...
Does anyone know about the actual healing process? I'd be very interested to know! ☺
