ear massage and valium points
I was thinking about acupuncture from voice's post as I wandered around the boards. And I began to masssage my ears. Better than the hair twirling and lip biting I've been doing lately. There are acupuncture or meridian points on your ears, near the top centerthat are for addiction. Mine are tender if you can imagine that. Other places are tender. It is helpful for you to stimulate those places as they relate to body parts in need. You can have an acupuncturist place little magnets held in place by little bandaid sort of dots on the addiction points and you press on them periodically to stimulate suppression of addiction. Not a silver bullet, but helpful.
I know you're waiting for the valium points.  Inside of your arm above elbow. Two or three fingers up. Sideways fingers, not longways. Feel around and find tender point. Press and hold for a minute or so on both arms. Should provide some relaxation. Hope that helps someone, anyone, everyone.

Greenie,
Here is sit rubbing and poking. It is, at the very least, quite distracting!! I will google on them and figure out how to do them correctly. Thanks for the info, hope you are doing well. Love, Cindi

Greens, at least you didn't have to lie down for these! LOL The valium one seems to work. Nothing with the ears though.

The ear points are in the area of your ear where if you were Yoda, you'd pinch the points. It's not instantaneous like the valium points. It's a progression thing. Thus the magnets. You can't think Oh I want a glass of whatever and pinch your ears and it goes away.

I have the little magnets on my left ear now from my first accupuncture session yesterday. So far, so good. I have not wanted a thing to eat or drink since 4:00 p.m. yesterday and it is now 7:15 a.m. Very interesting...

That's great Lucky! did the acupuncturist tell you to press on them? Are the magnets kind of pointy or with a spiral pricky thing?
