11 months

[GettingOffOfIt]

Proud to say I've made it 11 months. I'm pretty much back to normal but I still supplement my diet with a small amount of dopa-mucuna (dopamine) to make me feel happy and great all the time as well as L-Tyrosine for focus.  I drink coffee as well.  

I enjoy being able to enjoy things again.  It is nice being myself again.  I like getting my 8 hours of sleep every night and not feeling like I've been hit by a truck every morning when I roll out of bed, desperately searching for a pill to make the comedown go away. 

It is nice when I drive to be in the moment and not hyper-focusing on the drive.  Same goes for everything else in life, being in the moment and enjoying it without hyper-focusing on something stupid and insignificant. 

I've also learned that I can get more done with a little planning than I could ever popping a pill.  I can work out at the gym just as long and hard at the gym.  I also enjoy my evening time.  I used to spend it with headaches or in a rage from coming off pills.  Now I get to use that time for relaxing when I have time to, like normal people do.

haha, literally felt like getting hit by a truck. just sore and exhausted everywhere - I remember a particular binge after which I could barely move, it was really concerning.

congrats on your (almost) 1 year!!
