Day 28 today, and I hope I’m done with the physical symptoms of withdrawal. Mentally things need to be taken very slowly and care taken not to relapse on bad days. I’m proud of my progress and when life gets tough it’s useful to think back to the battle and overcoming adversity, but I’m still very anxious, may need to see the doctor about that to address the underlying reasons I tend to go back for the codeine.
I had a couple of bad viruses in the time I’ve quit the codeine, I assume my body was not up to fighting the virus. Just this weekend overcome nasty sinusitis. Work has been keeping me distracted and luckily had a few fairly easy weeks to help my recovery.
I hope everyone struggling today manages to stay strong.
