Let’s Go - My Journey to 100%

[AltRoute]

I’m on Day 19 now. I can’t believe the water fast is almost over. Just two more full days after today.

I’ve been reading about some people’s experiences with water fasts on PH, which maybe I shouldn’t be doing. It seems like most people who did this length of a fast experienced significant improvements a week or two later, so I’m hoping for the same. Obviously I don’t expect to be cured outright.

If I have to, I will do a 40 day water fast. But I hope that what I’m doing now will be enough. It seems like this board isn’t nearly as active as it used to be, which is unfortunate but I’m doing my bit to try to keep it more active by posting more regularly.

Thanks for keeping us posted. I’m not sure if I missed it but have you currently benefited from mental clarity during your extended fast? I’ve only managed to hit the 6 1/2 day mark on my longest wf and the mental clearness was unlike anything i experienced before.

I feel like I have more mental clarity now, although it’s been a gradual change. I can also fall asleep faster and stay asleep as much as I want, so I’m not sure if this is due to the water fast itself, or getting great sleep every night.

The bigger and more noticeable change is in my anxiety levels; they’ve dropped a lot. There’s stuff that I have to do that I’d normally feel anxious about, but now I don’t really notice any anxiety associated with it. My anxiety isn’t zero, but it feels massively dialed-down, more powerful than the medications I used in the past. If it stays like this, that will be huge for me.
