The things you can do ... are an improvement!

 

Many of those you could not dos ... were on my list ... I can do many of them now (maybe not as easily as last year...but I can do them).  We are healing!

 

You will do them again!

I so agree, crescent. Focusing on what you CAN do is so much better a way to cope. In fact, this is an example of all that is RIGHT about recovering from benzos. I am so proud of you for focusing on positives.

 

Sara Sue, please read my last entries on my Blog. PLEASE do. I miss you.

Little by little you will be able to do more things from the “can’t do” list.

As you mentioned it starts with very humble beginnings like going to the bathroom, eating simple stuff, taking a shower....

Take it slowly without too much pressure on you and things will come back in time.
