25 days since I took my last sub. I stopped my antidepressant, all blood pressure meds I was prescribed and have been eating healthy and hitting the gym hard.
My mind is so clear and excited that it pushes my body all day and I end up crashing early at night. 7am wake ups I'm not used to... Even working I set my schedule for after 10am. I should be working. The real-estate market is busy and I'm missing out. But to be honest I don't care. I have myself 60 days off work. I'm sure ill start making calls soon for work but I'm too busy enjoying life. I'm back to doing the things that make me- ME. Surrounding myself with my friends and family and excited about life.
Yesterday for the first time is a long time I walked out to my car from a store, the weather was perfect, I took a deep breath and thanked God for where I am today. It was a complete auto response and feeling of gratitude.

I have wasted so much time because I was dreading being sick. And I knew better. I knew how amazing life can be. It's just verification that addiction will trap you, take your soul, and make you doubt what you know to be true.

Hope everyone is doing well.
