FH, I just walked GP through the steps to put the ticker on, a step at a time, if you want to try again,

:D. Hope you and hubby are having a good day.  Love you, Mary 💜

 

I do Mary.  I cant get my bunny to jump even after I put in the percentages.  Should I start over?

 

 

 

Good morning Long Hold Support Group and a special shout out to Valley, it's so nice to have someone with so much experience here with us.  Hope everyone has a better day, love you all, Mary 💜💜💜💜

Hello my LHSG friends.  I WANT COFFEE!  Just got up from that weird not being able to sleep laying in bed like a zombie.  Stupid cats (I love them) woke me up at the crack of dawn to eat.  Took my 5mg and went back to bed.  And now I’m craving a nice cup of Joe with my favorite sugar creamer.  Not good for w/d.  I use my phone for posting and not sure how to make that cute little graph below my signature.  It’s too complicated right now.  I start my day also reading my inspirational daily readers and some meditation.  I hope you all have a good day or evening.  Symptoms “so far” are ok.  Just craving a good cup of Joe.

that dog wont move! :o

 

Just jumping in, I can't get my bunny to move either.

 

Your bunny won't move, I thought my dog would too  :D. You have to go back and change your reduction numbers, copy the URL again and repaste.  Each time you change numbers  ;)

Ok, don't worry about that percentage, just fill out the amount you started at and where you are now, the tracker will do rest :)

  Wish I could figure this out.  I don’t see how to copy and paste into url and where to do it.

 

Hey girlfriend  :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:

 

Have you made room in your signature and left it open, that's where it will go....

Then have you picked reduction ticker on first page of ticker factory?

Now pick the 2 items you want to use as your ticker,

Then go to page that has amounts , where you started and how much you reduced

 

Are you with me?

Yea I got that but can’t see how or where to paste etc .  Between url.?  This is too much for me now.

 

On the last page of ticker look down and you will see BB code

 

In top box, copy URL to URL, copy it and paste it in your signature, click update

 

You can do it free :smitten: :smitten:

Good way to start your day Meems.  I drink half n half folders and I don't feel anything,  but I use stevia and no sugar cashew milk.  Not bad but certainly not delicious  :).  Glad your symptoms are manageable today 💜💜. Mary

I see that but don’t see where to put it inside the url. Don’t worry, I don’t want to clog up page with this.  I’ll figure it out later.  Thanks Mary.

Espy,Intend,Bill, Janice, Gilly,GP, Suzy,Meems, look and everyone here remember you will get through this.This is withdrawal and it will pass.l know when you are suffering it feels like it will last for ever but it won't.Stay strong my friends.Love and hugs Stut X

 

Stut,

 

Thanks for mentioning me. I’ve not posted in quite awhile. Been very busy, and seeing so many new people here has been intimidating for me.

 

But I have been reading along here and there. So you are having your troubles with the virus still, withdrawl, and now the mange with Sox. Since Sox never leaves your house, perhaps she got it from the dogs. Just hoping you and your daughter can handle all this with both of you unwell.

 

I am looking at a very long time for withdrawl of this clonazepam. And now worried more than ever about my voice.

 

Yesterday, Blake came over to pick up huge boxes he ordered to fix his friends car. So many boxes that I asked him if his friend was at least paying him, and he said yes because tools and parts were ordered on amazon so he was paid ahead.

 

And he had to wait for the 2nd “in command” at Matt’s plumbing business  to pick him up. While he was here, he made more coffee, and got me unnerved with taking up my counter and washing coffee maker parts with no detergent. I was so shaken that I looked for Dan who is never around when I need him. I just broke down in tears when Dan finally took over. Poor Blake. He never sees me like this.

 

Then last night, he sent me a text telling me that a longtime friend of Dans from his railroad days had just dropped dead of a heart attack. Blake was putting in a water softener at their house when his wife asked him if he was Dans grandson. I’ve never thought they resembled each other that much, but Cathy is our daughter and Blake is her son.

 

Kristy, Blake’s step mother has commented about how much they look alike also. So I’ve just found the obituary and may comment as this friend Paul worked for years with him on the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad which is now the Union Pacific Railroad here.

 

Everyday I wake up and test my voice as mornings are usually my best times with my voice. I tested it yesterday and seemed like it was worse, and today not sure.

 

Still working on my insurance papers, and will definitely need my voice for that.

 

Just know this long hold is not working for me. I am definitely getting worse I do believe.

 

Have contemplated seeing the new Joker movie with Joaquin Phoenix if I have the time today.

FH, I cheated and copy pasted from my desk top computer and I had a lot of trouble there!  No way could I figure it out on IPhone or IPad.  I’m still stuck in the seventies.  Maybe I should change my name then I would be SITS.  My bf can attest to that.

Thank you Suzy dear. Yes, I hope there are better days for both of us  :smitten:

 

Valley um, thanks for your concern. I really don't want to discuss about the other meds. When I started taking them I was with SI every day. I went into acute wd. It had been like a CT but without coming off the medication. I was getting worse and finally updosed as I have to be functional. I will not even consider touching the other meds now. I have read hours and hours about them and I don't want to go on with that although I know you mean well. I have got PMs from buddies who first tapered the benzo and after that successfully came off gabapentin and trazodone and I'm hanging on to that. I don't want to hear the horror stories on my other meds. I do know I would be sleeping near to nothing if it weren't for the trazodone. And I had about five nights a week of zero to one hour sleep this past summer. I'd probably have to delete the other meds in my signature.

 

Valley on a different note, thirty years of marriage well deserve a second chance and one action does not define a person so I'm very happy you're trying. It's not easy to find a life partner these days.

 

:thumbsup:

I must confess I did not give up my diet Mountain Dew habit as I withdrew. It was worth it to me just to feel half way normal lol 😆

GP, I finally got it.  Once Mary said not to put in the percentages, I was able to get my bunny hopping.  Updating it will be another adventure.

Hey Intend, I am so sorry to hear your voice was worse and that you were crying,  it breaks my heart.

I wish I knew something to help.  Did you go to the movies?  Juaquin Phoenix will make the scariest joker ever, cause he is already strange.  I had two good mornings Thurs and Fri, but yesterday was rough, today some better but far from good.  I am on my 4th day of crossover of my smallest dose of Liquid.  Tastes nasty, but it's only .80, so don't really think it's causing this but of course I worry.

Damn benzo's.  Worried about Stut and the babies, having to wait on that medicine.  Please say hi to Dan and pet Pepper 🌶 fo me.  I love you woman, Mary 🌹🌹🌹🌹

Too bad there’s not a carrot at the end.  That would start it hopping!

 

:)

 

Yay FH, ya got it.  It took me forever my first time, now it's easy  :D

 

Sorry everyone for taking up so many pages with the Ticker, I remember how badly I wanted one.  Am going to do the instructions and put them in my plog , so that doesn't happen again  :)

Hey Mary, yeah for the most part they are. I would say I'm about 95 percent better. I still get weird chest discomfort when I get hot and some hot flashes a few times a day but so much better then I was. My BP goes a little wacky too when I stand up from sitting I'll get lighted headed and my hearing goes in and out until it passes. It doesn't last long but I don't like it. My breathing is good I can walk and stand all I want without issue. I'm on the fence about seeing the pots specialist now 🤷 tomorrow is gyno🤦

 

I'm sorry to hear you're still a little around the edges. Do you think you'll stick with the liquid? Will your Dr switch you back to pills if you wanted?

Yuck, the Gyno  :D. Mine is coming up.  Glad you are doing well enough now. It's taken so long to get that appointment, I would really think about it, just incase when you cut, things go badly again.  Just a thought.  Oh, I am not giving up on Liquid anytime soon, I had already been feeling bad, I have to give it a good chance, but I do feel pretty crappy.  Yeah, I am sure she would but I want to keep trying.

I have my second eye procedure this week, it just never ends.  I worked out today, but not sure it was a good idea or not, but I hate not working out when I feel so bad.  I just never know what to do :idiot:

Love ya, too many T's.  Give that hubby a big hug for being such a good guy  :D🍁🍂🎃🍁🍂🎃
