It's very rough to feel that you aren't getting any of the benefits of sobriety that were "promised." I'm currently at 29 days, but had eight months sober this year and didn't feel right at all during a lot of that period. Tired, foggy, depressed, lethargic.

It's also very depressing to be in search of a good drug regimen. I was pretty sure Lex would be beneficial to me in recovery. (It gave me my life back ten years ago.) But I feel it's been hindering my progress this time and that a lot of the anxiety and depression are somehow being driven by it this time. I doesn't seem to agree with me at all. And my moods are still really up and down. It also seems to be promoting obsessive thoughts, some of which are quite scary.

Anyway, I am in no way offering any medical advice, just sympathizing with the fact that it is hard and frustrating.

Congrats on 129 days. Keep going.
