| Hey guys!!
I was just talking to another member the other day about how she was still feeling kinda crappy and I reminded her of the same thing Rsj said…..think of where you are today versus where you were a week or two ago. We tend to focus on how shitty we’re feeling instead of how far we’ve come. I know, especially being an addict, I think I’m supposed to feel great all the time, but reality is SO far from what my little pee brain dreams up about how I’m supposed to feel. I struggled with not feeling good for a long while, then I finally said "whiz on it", I accepted it and got on with my life. Substation, you bring up an interesting example of how good we can feel when we’re not focusing on how crappy we feel…..you went to AC, got out of your head and look how good you felt. As soon as you got back home, it sounds like you got back in you head again. I’m NOT bitchin’ at ya, hell, I still do the same crap on an alarmingly regular basis. I’m one of those stubborn dudes who learns his lessons the HARD way, but at least I’m learning. Keep hanging in there guys, y’all are warriors AND you guys impress the hell out of me!!! |
Um, yeah, I think that other member was me, lol.
I feel really pretty good, EXCEPT for in the mornings. 
It is reaaaaalllllyyyy tough for me to get going. My body is asleep and so is my brain, so I kinda sleep walk through the first few hours of the day. I even have a tough time speaking, like my tongue is asleep. This goes away as the day goes on. By bedtime, I’m 100% awake and good to go!! LOL!
Still, it’s just not bad at all. More annoying than anything. I look forward to the day when I wake up and there’s that ‘happy morning’ cartoon song playing in the background of my mind and I sit up, all rested and bright eyed, and cannot wait to start the day.
