Cool Introduction

Hi everyone,
I'm new here. It's only been three days but I'm optimistic. Finding it impossible to sleep. Feeling emotional and achy and still have a cotton wool brain. I would be grateful for any encouragement.

Thank you

Almost end of day three for me too and came really close to getting that bottle. But I stuck to my plan of going shopping, laundry and 4-5 other little things. Kept me busy for a few hours.
So I think having a plan for the day, or when you get off work might help. Keep going over and over it your head. That's what worked for me today. Started thinking of my plan for tomorrow now. We shall see.
Good luck to all of us!!!!

Pleased to meet you Laprincipessa . The support here is wonderful.

The feelings you describe all sound perfectly normal - I felt like that the first week or so. Everything settled down & I felt part of the human race again. We've put our bodies through so much - it takes time to heal. Congrats on your 3 days!
