Hi Twirls, not all the meds will make you fat---express that concern to your pdoc. Getting rid of the extra meds in your cabinet was a good move! We are here to support you. Things will get better--you will feel better. It may take a bit for all the meds to get out of your system and you may have a bit of a withdrawal, but after that, sobriety does feel good. Well, okay, maybe not roses all the time, but most definitely better than using! Welcome to sobriety!
