Is it a bad sign I've never had a window?

Everyone here seems to talk about windows and waves here after jumping and I have yet to experience what this actually feels like. I'm month 5 already. Can they come later? Or do some people never experience this? I guess if I were to use the word "wave", I would say it's been one long wave since jumping, and even before jumping while in tolerance withdrawal.

I haven't really had one either. My symptoms seem to morph and sometimes I feel better than others but the brain fog and unable to feel joy or connected to anything has been constant this whole time. I had like a 30 second window months ago where I was laying there and the fog seemed to part and I felt totally like my normal self which is so different than what I feel now that is the only thing reminding me how far gone I still am at the moment.

im in month 37 and am nearly healed. I didn’t have my first window til about 6 months after jumping so it’s not uncommon. I have read similar patterns. Your going to be fine, it just takes time. Some longer and some sooner.

Sunlit - sorry you are also suffering. That's great you had a window though, it means there will be more to come.

 

Badben- that's reassuring, thanks for replying. And congrats on being nearly healed!! I saw in your sig you had monophobia, can I pm you about this?

Sorry you are struggling :( making it this far out from your last dose is a huge accomplishment though! I hope things ease up for you soon.
