tussockgal,
fasting can be an extremely trying ordeal, and there will be times, sometimes for days on end, when mental endurance seems to be the name of the game.

On my first prolonged fast it was absolute agony, accompanied by much total suffering, that I thought I was going to die: racing heartbeat; mental confusion; extreme weakness; nausea and vomiting of bile, and other effluence; a saliva spitting crisis, that with all of this I thought I must be mad or have lost my mind to continue. But through it all, I knew this was my only chance of overcoming my disease and the hope of life.
Day 21 to 25 my heartbeat steadied and became smooth and "clean" and the symptoms of detox subsided considerably, but by day 25 I had had enough and my mental resolve to continue had evaporated, and I broke the fast on orange juice.
The following week and thereafter was a euphoric and almost ecstatic experience, both physically and mentally, but severe disappointment and anguish that I had given up.

I refeeded for over a month, and then underwent another fast of 30 days, and expected the same, but to my surprise, was the most beautiful and rewarding experience I had ever had in my life: no detox symptoms; strength renewed for the most part, and a mental euphoria and elation that I never knew existed or could exist. Words fail me to explain this experience, but I recounted the comment by Upton Sinclair after his own fasting endeavours over and over to myself: "I have discovered a state of superhealth unknown to humans".

Persevere my friend and your rewards lay in the weeks to come.
