well, well, well...

and now it begins...for my husband and i at least...we got an appt with a dr to get on suboxne on thursday...i know some will say this is a chickens way out, but for us it is the only way possible...and i swear a weight has been lifted just by telling a third party...and she said welcome, you've taken the first step to recovery, and that was good to hear in person...

bad part is, and im sorry to those doing it to, but we have to be in fulll w/ds by then...so what we have left today is it...tomorrow i know will be pure hell...as we have not been without for over 4 years...

as i posted to tink, i feel like we are now joining a glorious club...i can now begin on that journey of actually helping someone on here rather than the one needing all the help...

have league bowling tonight, but i will check on you guys later...

love, natasha

You make me proud.  I am so weak today. I would go to the corner and ask a stranger for it today.  SUCKS.  I have almost given up.  Day 8,9 I dunno, but it is all such a fuckin mess.  My head, my heart, my back...I would BEG someone right now for a pill.  

Note:  OFcourse not begging here, just getting it off my chest.  Should I be here, or should I get the hell off the forum where my mind wanders to internet possibilities and the like?

Almost wish I were you. Atleast today will be ok for you.  Tomorrow....yikes.  I can't even think through the next hour.   Rambling.... sorry.

Again, you make us proud.  Keep us posted about tomorrow and your SUCCESS.
Peace~

I don't think you're taking the "chicken" way out. I think you're just getting out! Yeah for you and your hubby!!! Each one of us is different. Different things work for different people. It's gonna be rough, but it's gonna be worth it in the end. My prayers are going out to both of you. Keep us posted. This is a wonderful site...with wonderful people.

I started on the Suboxone 2 months ago and also had to be in full w/d so I didn't sleep 1 min the night before but let me tell you when you get there and they give you your first dose and all the pain of w/d goes away you won't believe it. CONGRATULATIONS to both of you!!

I posted this on another topic also but wanted to make sure that Creek was able to read it. And please hang in there you are stronger than this addiction and you can beat it hands down. Just think how great it will be to be pill free!!!

Creek-please please do not get anything from online. I can tell you from experience that this is a never ending supply and will drain every dollar from you. It isn't cheap and you will continue to order to feed your habit. If I had not gotten prego I would not be making the progress I have been making. One of my b/f's went to rehab for vic's a few years ago and she is now back going stronger than ever and using 6 to 7 different online suppliers. A bad habit that used to only be 5 to 15 a day has quickly become a 30-60 a day habit because she has bottles and baggies full of the stuff. You will only make your addiction worse and stronger than ever.
