I concur too. If it wasn't for my positive attitude towards finding new pain medication I don't think I would have succeded on my taper program (that I did all by myself--no one holding my pills). I just kept telling myself everyday how good I felt..(even though some days I did hurt). And I thanked God almost every day.
Hello everyone. I completely agree with avis. And, would like to openly appoligize for an incident I had last week. I was reading through some of the posts and came accross something that riled me. I don't want to relive it. But, I flipped out and went off of someone that hadn't even wrote the post. I still feel horrible about it. I just want to say that sometimes, the emotions of being an addict, can overcome you. I am regaining all the feelings and emotions. Anger and resentment being some of them. I have learned from it, and have caught myself feeling them again out in the world. I am starting to look into the whats and whys of this. But, I believe there are just as much, if not more ,emotional/mental reasons we use in the first place. In other words, I have to start facing my demons. As alot of us do. I am extremely thankful for this forum. I do not believe I would be as far along as I am without it. Thank you to all.
