I'm okay I guess. I went to the doctor today and he confirmed that it IS withdrawls and I don't have some crazy tumor or something. He told me that it should last no longer than a month at the most, but if it gets worse-I may have to go back on it or on something else.I thought the physical withdrawl was bad enough, but the emotional stuff kicked in yesterday. Crying for no reason and panicking. Just fabulous, I tell you. I don't have kids but I am a teacher of 35 students. That's a little rough with all this other insanity going on for sure.
Anyhow, Day 7 is almost over. I hope it gets better for all of us.
