It feels so funny being normal.  I know at any time it could change. but it is a strange feeling not being up and down.  Has anyone felt like this at any time. Please let me know. :-)

Yes, it's lovely. :) Enjoy it!

I agree it does feel funny. I keep checking to make sure that this is what normal feels like. One day my 19yro daughter said to me, "This is the mom I remember having growing up." Yeah, maybe I didn't screw up my kids too much.

Seven months for me in remission. Have had moderate depression but passed after I quit drinking beer. Still med free except occassional klonipin!
And I have been through horrendous stress...loss of job, rotater cuff injury, son all messed up on drugs, periods every two weeks. But still making it through by meditation, prayer, Nar-Anon meetings, and a loving supportive husband. Each day I try to do my best and be a good person. I also journal. Being sober helps a lot. Enjoy it...I am...even on the rougher days it is not at all like it used to be. Spirituality has given me my life back because alone, I wasn't making it.

Red Lightening talks about stopping her drinking of beer;the removal of alcohol content may be attributable to her improvement and remission.

For a better feeling tone, try removing anything containing corn from your diet for a week or two. You'll be amazed at how much smoother and less obsessive your thoughts are. It's the grains for those who are sensitive to them--that and alcohol, caffeine, chocolate, and tea.

Hey It's Genetic: Could I hire you as my personal cook and food handler? :) I have never heard of the relationship between corn and obsessive thoughts. I have eliminated dairy, 'cause my daughter is lactose intolerant. I have at different time been gluten free, but of course then I rely on corn. It is a complex puzzle! Appreciate your input.
