Hehe, I understand your point. However I wouldn’t dismiss and look down at those who are feeling so miserable they can’t see a way out.
I still see side-effects, but they have decreased in intensity and occurrence to such a level that I am much less focused on them.
For others the intensity and occurrence may be so high that they don’t believe there is a way out.
Certain things seem to be major stumbling blocks on the road to recovery:
- Alcohol + Drugs - effect is immediate.
- Caffeine - can be ok once or twice but you never know when it will be too much and cause too much physical drainage and anxiety.
- Lack of exercise - can feel the effects of this within 1-2 days of no exercise.
- Eating sugar / unhealthy food / whatever you find is a trigger for you in a trial-error basis.
