This will be my last post on this forum.
As my journey unfolds, I've come to the conclusion that recovery is achievable. When you engage in mind healing activities, you will be amazed at how resilient the brain is. Yes these injections can suppress emotions, and the ability to feel any sort of substance. But you will feel these things again. I've smoked weed a number of times since my last injection, and I do feel the effects, same as alcohol. But I refrain from entertaining these things, especially alcohol, because it rots the mind.
My recipe for recovery was and still is cold showers, abstaining from porn and masturbating, I've recently disregarded all social media, and I've taken up the healthy habit of meditation and practicing mindfulness. If you are still on the shots, my heart goes out to you. If you aren't, give my regiment a try. You may discover something.
Best regards to everyone, this place has been helpful in the darkest days.
I know I said I wasn't going to post on here anymore, but I have too big of a heart to not share my current experience with you guys.
Recovery is possible. I'm living proof of it. Everyday I heal and I get closer to being that person I'm meant to be. Emotions are coming back strong. I had a super deep cry the other day and it was amazing to feel a rush of emotion like that. Also my sex drive has come back really strong. If you are off the shots, please start making positive life changes. There is no one coming to save you other than yourself. It takes courage to make those first steps towards recovery, but it's something you have to work at. It won't just magically happen for you. Meditation, quit masturbating, cold showers, suppliments, exercise, yoga. All these things are helping me a lot and I'm sure they may help you as well, if you're willing to give them a try. I feel like a lot of us are looking for some quick remedy for recovery. There isn't one. Only strong determination and will can get you where you are meant to be.
Good luck everyone, it will happen for you.
