GOOD JOB BROTHER!one week c/t.Bruce
Great News, but remember quitting doing the drugs is only half the battle.
Your brain will work very hard to get you back to drugs, it will lie, cheat, manipulate and justify to you that you can just take a couple just to sleep or if your having a very bad day just a few will make you feel better or that back injury its legitamate pain you have the right to take a few pills just to ease the pain.
Construction you have made it through the nasty W/Ds and after 22 days you feel the best. I tell you now almost 17 months here and I feel very good and getting better every day.
I still fight cravings, but now I understand and use the tools of recovery.
People here put down N/A but it is a place where you can share those bad moments and cravings with people who understand and have been there.
It is good to sit with addicts who do not use!
It is good to be with people who will help you without judging you!
It is good to be with people who care about your sobriety!
Your post was great news construction, fantastic.................
OUTSTANDING.............................
It is posts like yours that keep me going. I'm on day 9 c/t from norco and starting to feel better. Thanks for sharing your experiences....they help a lot to those of us behind you.
Thanks so much for the words of encouragement and support!!

Day 10 C/T - not a good day, low energy, low mood, dead inside. can't wait to get to day 20 and then year 20.
Congrats

I totally understand the no energy thing; I can barely stand it sometimes. That is one of the hardest things I have had to deal with being "pill free". That is the one craving that haunts me when I get home from work. If only I could just take one I could actually get the day to day things done. My hubby owns a construction business so he is gone from sun up til sun down, making dinner and giving baths are like running marathons to me. Construction has given me hope that this will turn around and one day I will get my energy back, I am tried of envying people around me because they are "normal" and don't know the pill he!!. Truth is, they may and I just don't know it.
Construction--keep up the good work your posts give me something to look forward to!!!
You are doing so great!!! You will have your good days and bad. Do you like to read? I know it helped me so much when I was trying to quit. It helps to get your mind on something else other than pills and for me it is a great escape. Keep up the good work and soon you will be feeling great. I only wish I could do what you have done. I just keep plugging away at it. I really admire your strength.
Bless,
