    This is exactly happened to me when I started my journey in 2017. Relapsed many times since then, but going very strong now.
    One thing which happens to almost all, me included - the anxiety, panic attacks, depression , anhedonia ----- all strike hard when we have started this journey & done a few months of hard-mode/monk-mode
    Ironically, when we go back for PMO for a day or two, it lessens ( but beware : it gets much worse when u relapse)
    Only way is : THROUGH

  2. Yep, I can attest to this. Although it doesnt take a few months for them to go away (for me). There are definitely times when I went back to the addiction *temporarily* stop the detox side effects....which of course, get worse later.

    It's sick to think how addicted from all the years of abuse. It's a true detox, as they say. You will experience some shitty times in recovery. Gotta go THROUGH as you say..
