Missing the small things in life
Im new to this so bear with me,im 8 days into kicking a 4 yr pain killer addiction and i have lost appreceation for the the things i used to do hobbies,fun, just taking a walk, fresh air, it seems like im either withdrawing or trying to get right again after using, im sick of the ups and downs. I hope this is normal and with time it has to get better.
Hi and welcome to SR justwant2quit
I'm an alcoholic but I think, regardless of the addiction, it takes time for our minds and bodies to heal...
8 days is great, but it may take more time

Welcome...
At over six months sober, I find that I now enjoy doing things I really didn't before. Give yourself a break and don't stress over it for now, you will get back to living life again.

Welcome to SR. It's good to have you here. I have a history of abusing prescription meds. Struggling with it right now as a matter of fact. I have genuine chronic pain, but I don't need anywhere near the amount I'm using.
