Thanks for the reply, I'm trying to be patient ..I just been suffering with this for about 2 years now and I just want to be able to feel confident enough to leave the house for once, I'm basically a recluse at this point, sad to say. I really want to get out and look for work, or somewhere else to move to that has work and just get back to a normal life..
I'm trying as well not to cheat, food wise that's easy I can go days with out eating, I've given food up quit a while ago. The hard part is the hot tea. I made a cup of decaf today and hasn't seemed to bother me, but I know from reading here it has to go. I decaf my English breakfast tea by steeping it for 40 seconds, discard, then brew normally which gets rid of almost all the caffeine. I know I need to find a herbal tea, but the few that are in the supermarket are far from appealing. Also having a mint allergy doesn't help that choice much... lol
It's just so hard, I've given up so much, I gave up coffee quit a while back, gave up all the foods I loved, gave up going out to eat, etc... but I know I'm not alone in this struggle and there allot people going through similar struggles.
