Title: Lack week of anti dep withdrawal
Post by: Boatsetsailrose on November 21, 2015, 04:31:14 PM
Last week of anti dep withdrawal

Very grateful to reach this stage - I feel real hope

Feeling my emotion more - but scarey or how it goes up and down so vastly
But I am liking not being so numb and am more awake and less zombie

Feel tears come in my eyes when something touches me - haven't felt this for so long
Very rarely cried on tablets

My heart isn't beating as fast

Hopeful

Tears - I feel I've reached a really good point in my recovery - it's been a long hard journey

Fear - too good to be true ?

not too good to be true! huge progress and a great encouragement to the likes of me  :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

take care of yourself as you rediscover all those bits of you that were numbed by the meds.  and be extra specially nice to you.

proud of you, dear boatssr  :applause:

Reporting I am now anti dep free ...
Good and scarey at the same time
My sponsor reminded me fear is false evidence appearing real :)
Ain't that the case

Today I feel less sedated and better able to concentrate - feeling my feelings more it's so good to have tears when I feel them !
