    After about 3 months of my wife and I being separated, she came home Saturday. Saturday was the official start date of my reboot, it was hard! At first, I was super nervous. Whenever she'd lean in for a hug, I'd get easily stimulated and it caused me to slightly detach. I told her about the reboot process and we both agreed that it was needed. Even after 3 months, neither of us knew it was going to be that hard.

    The past 48 hours have been interesting to say the least. I've had severe mood swings; I'd get easily agitated for no reason and be upset for no apparent reason, I've also found myself super motivated to do just about anything and without a care in the world.

    Something I'm coming to realize is the long term strategy of rebooting. Before, I'd focus on trying to keep that high that kept me motivated and I ignored all of the impulse decisions I made in order to do that. I'm definitely ready to change and see this thing through. If not for myself, I can hopefully do it for my family.

    We hope you can put everything you've learned here into practice and have a successful reboot. Rebooting together can sometimes be a bonding experience for a couple. As long as you stay clean and work hard then I suspect your wife will be understanding.

    Mood swings and irritability are common and is not a true indicator of progress. Don't get discouraged if you don't 'feel' yourself getting better. Stay on the path and keep reminding yourself of what is at stake. Stay strong!
