One thing I vividly remember from my time on opiates/benzos, my thought process had actually changed. Literally, my brain did not make decisions the way it did years before. It had changed for the negative. I had a short fuse, I was reckless, and was negative about everything.
I knew this was something that could be "re-trained" as my body detoxed and returned to normal. I took the opportunity to (try) being optimistic in any situation. It was rough.. I spent 8 years wallowing in negativity. After about a month, I noticed the temper disappear. Within 6 months, my optimism became infectious. I'm "bout that life" now. Pretty sure I can find something good in any shitty situation.
Sorry for rambling...
I just wanted to let you know I'm thinking about you... Saying a prayer.
This is just one of the many benefits of sticking with your program.
You got this!
