Guest [ba...] Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 My emotions are still a bit flat, but for me that's almost a good thing. There was too much anger and worry in my old self. I do now occasionally feel joyous (and sometimes get angry/anxious). Just takes the right circumstances. Are you now feeling good enough to be getting out and doing things that should evoke emotions? Might try a comedy club to get you laughing or a romantic comedy (if you like those sorts of things). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Va...] Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Didnt you get extreme emotions in acute withdrawal? I am 7 days in it now, but not much feelings, just terrible physical symptoms Had only a few moments of anxiety and panic, but thats it so far. I cant cry. So my emotions defenitely are not right! Doesnt anyone get anxiety and panic in acute withdrawal? Or are some people just lucky? Ow, when I think a bit, I feel anxious reading here. So there is emotion.

Guest [ba...] Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Yes - I had strong emotions early in withdrawal (some good, but mostly bad). I almost think that my mind learned to shut down emotion as a protective mechanism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
