Slept 10 hrs last night


[wh...]

Recommended Posts

OK so many of my sx are still hanging around but getting better.  I slept 10 hrs last nite.  Just wanted everyone to know that..Really who cares at this point...but it felt good.  :laugh: I am a cold turkey case so it truly is a big deal for me.  For the past 9 mths I have woken up by horrific dreams, all the usual body sensations, ringing in ears, brain frying sensation, vertigo, room spinning , images when eyes closed , not knowing who I am..So I guess it is a big deal..Even it if does not last I am thankful for the relief.  So pls know that the brain gets it right !

Gosh, the last time I slept 10 hours was when I accidentally took at 10mg Valium pill meaning to take a 2mg pill (my taper had me down to 2mg at that point). Which confirms my thesis "# hours sleep = # mg Valium". At least while tapering. Hopefully once one gets to zero and starts healing, the sleep comes back...

It will  :)  I have not slept well in a year but this stuff made me sick from the beginning.

That's great 10 hours at 9 months. My sleep started to improve then too and then the morning cog fog left (that took about a month) and now my stomach is healing. Sleep does wonders for the body. Now if the darn muscle nerve aches would leave for good I'd really be happy!

 

The sleep thing will start to adjust back and forth.

 

You're on your way to healed!

My DP flared up, which led me to come online tonight. I'm overcome with a weird sense of comfort, relief and nostalgia, seeing your name on this forum where we met so early on in the midst of hell.

 

Keep goin, girly! We're almost done! Talk to you soon. ❤️
