Need to fix my plan

[akgirl]

Okay, I figure maybe I need to rethink my plan. I got all the supps and started with them. Then I got the topa and CDs but didn't follow through with them very well. So maybe that's whats missing. I am going to start over on the CDs but was wondering about the meds. I was nervous about the topa and its side effects, I think that's what held me back from increasing the doses. I was thinking about changing to Campral. I will read more through some of the post but was wondering how much to take? Can I get them online as well?

I think I'm going to read the book again too.
This place is so awesome, I appreciate all your help

Good for you, because you are thinking in terms of PLANNING!

How about exercise? For me, that's a major part of the mixture.

See, haven't been doing that. No wonder I'm not doing as well as I had hoped. Not horrible but not great. Need to plan more.

heya AK! i spent a TON of money on campral and honestly I don't think it did much. a big YES on the exercise and good diet though. when I stay away from sugars and simple carbs, and get my exercise and rest, I'm feeling good!

Hi AKgirl-

I second Det's comment that Campral never did much for me and it was pretty expensive. I'm no longer taking it. As for dossage, its a prescription-only med, so your doc will tell you. Actually, I think we compared notes one day and we all had the same dossage, for what ever that's worth. It was two tablets 3 times a day. It was very easy to tolerate, though, so don't be afraid to try it. Once I mistakenly doubled up on it and was going to let a visitor into the lab and couldn't remember the code for the door. A number I use at least 5 times a day. Embarrassing, but harmless.

I'm with you on a new plan. I have some Wendi hypno CDs that really help when I use them. Exercise has ALWAYS made me feel better, so that goes on the list, too. I think I need more. I am in a much better place (spiritualy, emotinally, mentally) than I was when I last tried and didn't stick with it.

I've seen some very thoughtful comments regarding having a plan in the past few days (Wonderbread and maybe WIP?) There are some super people on these boards. They helped me bunches when I was circling the drain, they help me try to get the most out of each day (even when I don't succeed) and I always feel their strength is there when I'm ready to take the next step.

So, how about a pact? Lets come back to this thread tomorrow and report back that we got some exercise and did some hypno or something else good for the body, mind and spirit?

Cheers,
D

12, I did enough exercise last night to last me a year. hahaha! dang it's great to be sore!

Wendi.com

Wendi Rocks!

And so does Boots, cuz she sent me a life preserver in the form of Wendi, some supps and even some aroma therapy. If I do the Aroma therapy, I have to turn right around and watch nascar or something to restore my manhood. What ever it takes, right?

Cheers,
D

Hi AK Girl: I haven't had any adverse effects from the Topa other than having a little trouble finding words (but that happens to me anyway . No tingling of the extremities--I was a little worried about that. I take 50 mg at night to see if it helps with my insomnia. I have been sleeping a little better. Today I started taking 25 mg in the a.m. as well. Still okay, no problems. Been listening to the sleep learning, the hypnotic (put me to sleep) and the subliminal. Can't stand the clearing cd, but will give it another try when I can get 30 minutes uninterrupted! Good luck. Kay (I have had one beer and one glass of wine in 7 days--and no cravings--amazing.)

Thx KTB

Its so stupid of me cause sometimes its not even cravings, just habit and routine. But I am not going over the edge like before. I guess thats a start. I just want some more AF days in there, haven't had many yet.

I'm stickin around til I get it right

ok. really like this idea as i need to revamp my plan as well. have totally misplaced my cds. go figure. so, the wendi cds are worth the money?

I take it the Wendi cds are a woman speaking I have the MWO cds and the only one I've listened to is the sleep cd, and I have to admit that his voice is difficult to listen to, but I keep trying. Maybe a woman's voice would be more soothing (like my mom's when I was a kid) I'm going to hit that website and check out Cindi. Thanks for the info!
