Day 15 and happy with my progress

Hey all,

Today is day 15 for me and wanted to post a quick update.

I'm doing really well. The first two weeks and especially the first week were tough. Fortunately I did everything right, also because of the advice I got on here.

I went to the ER, got help and took all other necessary steps to get help from the medical and mental health fields. I soon have an appointment with my internist. Now that I feel ok physically, I'm going to make an appointment with my doctor to get mental help and further addiction counseling.

At this point, things are pretty good. I'm still recovering but my baseline is acceptable. And every day I feel better physically and clearer mentally.

The only thing I would have done different, had I known it was the smartest thing to do, was to go to my doctor right away before quitting, so that I could get medical help from the start.

But it turned out well, with a lot of thanks to this forum.

Thank you all so far!!
