And I feel empty miserable and low as can be. I guess its a kind of withdrawl anything the Brain likes you can bet it will make you suffer for depriving it of what it likes.

You're not alone. It will only get easier though. That's something to keep in mind. You're doing really well.

Hi Dodo, I'm in the same position as you regarding chocolate. It's no longer just a treat, it is a mood enhancer. A very tough addiction to come off. 4 days for you is a good start, usually within a week the cravings will be less. After a month, you should be okay. The problem is not even taking one bite of chocolate or you will slide right back. I don't think that the people who occasionally indulge in chocolate can truly understand the powerful drug that it is. I can't even cut it down to once a day. Actually, I have increased my "drug of choice" to several times a day, each day hoping to stop. I feel miserable inside, lonely, agitated and tired. I certainly understand what you are going through.

I feel very irritable now and a high buzzing in my ears.

I have been sent two appointments one for my chest or lungs and one for my achalasia I think a check up for the later I alsogot aappointments for dentists and my mental health nurse and one for the mental health doctor's all for this month so I will be dreading the next couple of weeks. I bought so chocolate spread just incase my sugar level drops to far. I literally didn't want to think or move this morning it spooked me because i wanted to do some cleaning but didn't have the energy at all. A couple of ovaltines and I felt better but this whining in my ears bothers me.

So you are feeling very lethargic as well. Almost feels like I'm getting sick but I'm not. I need so much to get to my doctors as well. Because of the agoraphobia, I haven't had a check up for several years. Not good, I wish you well with your upcoming appointments. I too am dreading setting the appts. up. Need oral surgery and medical. I get that once in a while, high pitch sound in my ears. It's annoying but not painful. I'm real hyper right now too.

I'm wondering could it be something wrong with your blood like low mineral or something that makes you feel anxious specially if you haven't seen your doctor's in a while.

Dodo, I'm sorry you're not feeling well today. It's hard to concentrate on other priorities when we are down. Take a little time for yourself today since the rent is not due til next week. Hoping the pain settles down soon.

I've worked myself into a right state. Worried about my boy. I missed his phone calls and texts because i switchedmy main vvolume off because of the tweets tweeting every 5 minutes. I rang him back and he said he met some friends going to some house to drink booze. Now I'll be up worried sick all night until he comes home then I have an engineer coming at 10.30 so I will be up most of the day. I want to bury my hamster in this special place where I like to be on hot summer days. I will be warn out on top of that I haven't eaten because of pain and sickness in my esophagus. I feel like canceling all my appointments for hospital and dentists because to much is going on. I feel so warn down and yuk.
