I’m sorry to have to say this, but I just did the exact same thing. At 96 hours off of Sub I took 0.25 mg and I’ve taken that amount now for three consecutive days. I was really, really angry at myself, but like others have said, we just have to keep looking forward with our eye on the prize. We have to remember where we came from, and how much we have lowered our tolerance. A week ago 0.25 gave me no relief at all. But after being off for 3 days it’s enough to stop my stomach from roiling, and gets me through work.
I have come to realize that "just clearing my plate" for a week or so is never going to happen for me. Yes, I could claim I was deathly ill and not work for a week, but my kids still need me. Over the week-end while I was laying on my couch miserable, and my kids thought I was sick and were taking care of themselves as much as possible, my daughter knocked a jar out of the cabinet and it shattered not one but three glasses on the counter. Guess who had to get up and deal with it? Even if your kids are older they still need to be taken care of.
So yes, I wish I had just bitten the bullet and gotten through this thing already. But that’s just not happening for me. So I have to just believe I will get there. And you will, too.
