so sorry I haven’t been here for so long, I hope you are hanging in there. Honestly not surprised you were struggling, the withdrawals are really horrible, yes mornings are the worst. How is your sleep? In my experience two weeks is about the time it takes to get back to some normality, although if you read the first post on here the person who wrote that said it took 18 days. You WILL feel better, and when you do I promise you you will look back and feel so relieved you did it. Don’t give it, just tell yourself that it is temporary, it WILL end. You have done the worst part. The diarrhoea is awful and can go on for quite a long time, I found immodium really helpful for that. Sending hugs back xx
