6 Months Next Week

No windows yet. Functioning so-so (can't exercise or exert myself like I did before) but so many physical symptoms still. This makes me think I'm in this for the very long haul. Crap.

It can be really hard to stay optimistic but I really think at 6 months out it's too early to know what the path to recovery will look like. (In fact, although there are general contours to withdrawal, it's not possible to predict how any individual's recovery will progress no matter where they are in the process.

It's not unusual in withdrawal to be easily triggered by stressors of all kinds, including exercise.  I found pushing myself hard in any way intensified by symptoms.  Eventually, this eases up.  Stay strong
