33 days clean

Hey all, brand new here.

It's been over a month since I quit opiates and couldn't be more happier with the decision to live a healthy, productive and meaningful life for once (after several failed attempts).

Being sober is both liberating and a little frightening. I get discouraged at 2 weeks/4weeks/whatever mark wanting to be free from all psychical symptoms. The addicts mind eh?

Have to be patient and remind myself that all this pain & discomfort is worth it and shall pass. But, some days is hard to imagine a bright future when I feel strange. Don't know how to describe it - the pain is minimal - but now I'm kinda lost.

Is it PAWS or am I still early in recovery? Thought that by 2-3 weeks I would get back (relatively) to feeling normal.
