I don't feel that your body is preparing for what is to come, I think you are severely depressed, rightfully so. When you first came on the boards and when you ended treatment I recall you were quite depressed so this may be something you are prone to. Take Joanna's advice and go to a therapist, deal with the emotions of what you are dealing with, it must be so overwhelming. I wish there was something I could do to help. I trust that you will find your way in all of this. Love, Minnie
