Re: MORE random stuff about your day
Now that I've experienced several weeks of my normal (pre-detox) sleep pattern I am declaring myself free of the effects of withdrawl from my Oxy. People who have done this told me it could take up to three months to be free and clear and I'm coming up on two months. Poor sleep is the last symptom I could attribute to it so unless something else pops up (doubtful) I should be good. My relationship with Rebecca continues to deepen. I am grateful beyond words.

But yeah, lovely word, one of my favourites, although a little difficult to weave into conversation.

There's gotta be a metal band called Petrichor somewhere in the world. Possibly Northern Europe. Or maybe Latin America.

I dunno.
"What's that deodorant you're using? It smells very petrichorean."

I'd pay good money for a petrichorian deodorant. Oh wait, it's called Irish Spring soap.

Fantastic news Les. I am so happy for you both.

Re: MORE random stuff about your day
Thanks everyone. It has been a hard road but glad I succeeded. It's only up from here. It's a weird feeling not to have to check my pocket to make sure I have my pills on me before I leave the house.

It is great but you inevitably sound like a twat when you say it.

Re: MORE random stuff about your day
After weeks of feeling that something’s really not been right all my life, someone said something today that resonated. I phoned a counsellor and now it seems like I need another visit to my GP. Don’t worry as it’s not a bad thing. If what I think is true, things will make more sense and that phone call was productive. Don’t want to say too much here as I can’t be sure yet, but I will post more soon.
