My trick may not work for you (or all Buddies) but I find a nice cup of coffee makes me (at least) 75% more active and outgoing. I force myself to the gym or even just to sit with my guitar for an hour.

 

I find being in WD so very depressing and along with the physical symptoms I have, it often forces me to just lay in bed and feel sorry for myself. But, more often than not, a bit of caffeine will bring me out of the rut - if only for an hour or two.

 

Hope that helps. Sorry if it doesn't.

Thank you so much. I have always liked coffee. When I was on benzos, I had a small cup of coffee every morning, it went fine. Nothing bad happened. However, years down the road, I just stopped drinking coffee maybe because of a few panic attacks /panicky feelings right afterwards. It could be coincidence too...so for the past 8 months going into this wd I have not drank coffee...but sometimes I want to try...However I notice sugar might be bad for me....I am thinking tea....a cup of tea...but it has caffeine in it too...I just hate sometimes my body is so sensitive and can't really enjoy things....Thank  you for the sharing ,happy valentine  ....

Ya, try tea then! I often use tea to get a little motivation too. More so if I want to write and read
