Hello all
I thought I’d post a quick update.
I’m on day 16 and things are slowly getting better. I’m now having to ‘do life’ more and more and in a way it’s doing me good – pretending to others that I’m okay (when I often feel anything but!).
I keep a journal and I’ve found a good coping strategy is to read back on how I was this time last week. The improvement is immense although it doesn’t always feel like it. I’m also coming to terms with the fact that I will always have to abstain… something I’ve never really accepted before.
Still struggling with low mood and poor motivation – can’t seem to see the good in anything and am oh so irritable. It also looks and feels like I’ve aged 20 years in 2 weeks!
Husky Lee, Bels and Tilly – hope you’re all doing okay.
Love to everyone ????
