I journaled during my taper, but not every day. Focusing on how I was feeling always seemed to amplify the negative, where distraction and exercise always made me feel better. But I did want a record so I could see my progress and track how I was doing.
I didn’t read other people’s taper stories though. I really believe that much of withdrawal is mental and I just decided to avoid the power of suggestion.
When I jumped, I stayed off the forum for a week or so because I just didn’t want to hear about anything to do with Suboxone at all for that first week. Plus I was pretty touchy and I didn’t want to take it out on anyone here.
