OMG! This post was put here for me! I am still weaning at 37.5, going to half of that in 2 weeks. I know exactly what you mean about TIny goals. Today, I did one thing I was putting off, washing my sheets and remaking the bed. I did it and it felt wonderful! It's so stupid that a little thing like that can make you feel more in control, but it's true! Thanks for your post, I took it to heart. Wish me luck in 2 weeks...

> Hey Vaster, Roomy here. Know that I, too am hear to listen if you need to chat. Heck, anyone who wants to chat on yahoo messenger I am there. my Id is Roomyzoomy. I am off effexor now for my 19th day. I am feeling better physically and each day I do things more and more like the old me. I have found that when we go out (and we do quite often, too often actually. Next I will be on a 'going off beer' forum)I tend to actually laugh and joke and talk alot. For years I was just sitting there drinking my beer and listening to others. I also am getting my energy back to do the things around my house that needed doing. I found that setting TINY goals for myself each day and actually reaching those goals, makes me feel so good about myself. I mean TINY goals: 'today I will get out of bed and actually MAKE it!' lol My sense of humor has helped me thru the withdrawl alot. posting little notes here to attempt to bring a smile (no matter how small) to others makes me feel a bit more worthwhile. I truely could not have gone off this drug without this forum. Its nice to know that other people really DO know what I am and was going thru. Family and friends have offered me support and have really been good but they just dont understand like all of you here. Thanks so much. Let me return the favor to anyone who wants to chat. E-mail or yahoo chat, it makes no difference to me.
