Day 3
It does get better! And I'm not just saying that. Have you visited the 24 hour thread, or the weekender thread? That's where we keep in touch with others struggling; there's great support there. (Both are in the newcomers forum)
Yes, it most definitely gets better, DD931. Try thinking of day 3 as one step closer to your goal. This seemed to help me get through the days a little easier.
Are you drinking lots of liquids, have you eaten?

It gets so much better. Maud cat is right. when it gets really bad a good meal did wonders. Three days is a really big deal. It was the hardest for me, in a week or two you will feel so much better. Stay with it. We are here for you>

Those thoughts of feeling that nothing will change and it won't get better are coming from your AV (addictive voice). Don't listen to IT...IT is a liar! Stay close to SR and post whenever you begin to feel weak. We're all here for ya!
Hang in there...stay strong...you're going to be so glad that you did!
Day 3 is rough...and look at you! High five! You never have to do day 1 and 2 again!
Seriously, yes, it will take awhile. And yes, it does get easier!
One good thing about all your new friends on SR is that somebody's always online to listen and cheer you on. Welcome! Congrats on your new career.

Thank you It is nice to hear some kind words right now!
I feel like SUCH a disappointment.
But you can only go up from rock bottom.
Working on my plan for recovery and hope to be a part of this community as I have read how many people it has saved. I WILL be one of those people too, life is too damn precious to throw away!
