Recovering

Hi, I'm on day 3 of recovery! Last pill was sat at 8:30 am. I'm all alone, very very depressed! I have no one to confide in. I have the RLS, bad. First two days weren't as bad as today. I'm very lethargic. But did manage to get off of couch today and go get some vitamins. I was using 30-40 mg daily. For almost 4 yrs. sometimes more. Any advice or words of wisdom would be appreciated.

Welcome to the family. There's a lot of support here so stick close, especially if you feel like using. Come here instead.

Welcome! Just keep posting if you need people to talk to. I don't have any experience with pills either but I know that a lot of people here do. 3 days is great, btw!

Hi Salv,

You're doing great. You can get through this.

I'm glad you got out of the house for a bit today.

Thank you all for your kind words, the withdrawals are terrible! But the loneliness is worse.

You are going great, hang in there...it is hard to say how long withdrawals last as they are different for everyone.
Once they are over you will never have to go through this again.
This is a great place and you are not alone.
I found warm baths helped so much with the RLS. Also lots of water.
Keep posting, it can get quite here at different times but I feel it does help to get out what you are going through.
