Guys,
I guess the thing that I'm struggling with most is the absolute lack of any decent windows so far and being so scared. Tomorrow will be 17 weeks off completely. Today, I am in as bad of shape as I was a couple months ago. As stated, I've had a few good 2-3 hour windows where I can think more clearly but definitely not completely free of fog or the vision stuff. The windows are basically no anxiety, no depression, and overall thinking pretty clearly (but definitely not myself). The few windows have happened in the evening and I've yet to experience any windows in the am or mid-day with exception of during the first 3-4 weeks off. I'd say I've had 2-3 decent evening windows in the last 3 weeks...and a big stretch of no windows for about a month before this.
I can't get my mind under control in terms of how long until these symptoms will ease enough to be more tolerable. It actually feels like the head fog is slightly worse. I've got a terrible feeling like Groundhog day where the story repeats itself every day. Starting with a morning terror every morning as I wake up to realize that I'm still in this mess.
I know I'm probably still in the middle of the worst if it but do you think there is hope at this point? Have you heard of little/no improvement even at 17 weeks off? I know you guys really struggled but i am fearful about lack of any progress for me at this mark. The stories about protracted withdrawal actually debilitating someone to the point of losing their job, family, everything has me so freaked out right now. Everyone in my circle assures me that all will be okay but I feel like I'm the lone ranger trying to fight this and I hide my symptoms as best as i can in order to not affect them but that is damn near impossible.
Thanks.
