Way to go Introvrtd1,
HALT is a really important tool to remember. We spent a lot of time talking about it in rehab. Often a craving is due to something else. I find hunger is a big trigger for me as well, as is feeling tired. splitimage

day 18....yesterday was rough....from what i've read, it's likely protracted withdrawal syndrome...it can last from a few months to two years...
 when it strikes, it feels like day 2 or 3 during the acute withdrawal stage, only it less intense and doesn't last as long.... sigh |

its also likely my diet....sugar....ill cut it out and see if that helps...i've read sugar can have the same effects as withdrawal when taken during recovery...

day 24.....haven't had a withdrawal symptom since day 21...i can't believe im finally getting better...
i don't mean to say i can't believe it....im just surprised.... i thought these symptoms would hang around for months....i wound discount the fact that they may return, but only less intense....the frequency is already less.. .......ugh i don't want to ruin this good streak... |

How was your walk around town? Was it relaxing. Heck excersize is always a good thing.
