ugh
 
day 4 & i just feel like giving up. no matter what i seem to do, all the suggestions i listen to and do, doesn't seem to work for me. i feel like i need to be put away, like forever.

kae. hang in there. four days is an accomplishment in itself.
and if you turn "ugh" around, you'll find it spells hug. :rotate:

I remember my day 4's too - it gets better Kae :)

As for things 'not working' - if you're anything like me, you want it now LOL...

one of the things I've had to learn was patience - it takes time to turn a life around...day 4's a great start Kae, but it is only a start :)

You're not alone though - hang in there :)

Hang in there, you are doing awesome:You_Rock_. I said the same thing while detoxing and I am so glad I stuck with it. Congrats on 4 days and take it one minute, one hour, one day at a time, just dont give.

Kae, you're not alone and we do understand.

I firmly believe, the only way it will get better, is to get through it. Get through Day 4 and Day 5 will be a bit better.

Hang in there I've done day 4 twice and it DOES get better :D Much harder the first time though, i remember feeling like absolute crap, shakes, nausea and absolute insomnia!!! But pamper yourself because you're worth it :)

Kae, it won't be long and you'll start to feel much better. Getting to Day 4 is something to be proud of, even though it doesn't feel that way right now. It takes strength and courage to keep going - and you're doing it. Better days are coming, promise!
