Just a quick blurb before I head to bed.

I'm currently finishing day 5 of complete sobriety. I've had Percs available almost all week, found Tramadol recently and have renewed a script of Vics today.

My current outlook is I don't want to fall into the trap again. All medicine is out of reach - I've asked for it to be that way for at least 1 month from abstinence (sp).

The first 2 days were what I'd call 'average' wd's. The 3rd, lighter than usual (but day 3 is normaly easy for me for some odd reason). Day 4 was easier than usual - today, physically I was OK, but felt fairly dysphoric. I had a few drinks last night, which may have been my problem (have had a few drinks the last few nights). I'm planning on day 6 to be similair, but I will not be drinking tomorrow night nor Sunday. I'm hoping for day 8 (Monday) to be my first "good" day in the rest of my sobriety of pills. Yea, I expect to have bad days, but I am now determined to beat this. I may not be the most religious person, but I thank God for making my last binge on pills not the most enjoyable.

Night to all - wish you well!

congrats on 5days.. especially since you have had pills available to you. i don't think i could be that strong. luckily for me since i have been tapering i have a had a limited supply and have been able to stick to it for fear of running out before i am ready. you are working it.. keep up the positive outlook.
