[california30]

[vicki595]

500 days clean, yesterday!!!    Thank you,again,Domino and Jade, for pointing it out to me!!
I'm thinking that when you've lost track of your clean days it has to be a good thing!!! The one year mark was my dream come true...

Hosein2000:  I know you know this but I'll remind you: Addiction is one ugly beast and it does not descriminate!  It matters little what or who you are!  And it's said that love is blind...Ha!   Personally,when you speak of "normal", I had no idea what my normal was...but I was hoping I could live with her.  I'm living well and I'm happy and busy and I'm gratful and humbled by this...I had a lot of recovery support and I had to fail in order to realize I needed it. I'm very strong but the addiction...much stronger. Get yourself some support of any kind: meetings,therapy,workshop.I don't advocate one over another,you just need to find your niche'.  Proud of you!

[eyeofhorus2010]

Day 293 for me. Looking forward to hitting that 1 year mark.

[Hosein2000]

Thank you so much. No I do not us the tracker. Is it in a site or is it a stand alone application? The first 2 weeks was a real hell, but now, even if I do not have severe leg/hand pain, most of the time I am restless, mu heart starts ponding in my chest, and I feel tired and no interest to even move. I have told myself that I am a man and have to beat this damn addiction (I am male, 52 years old, with a family of 5, and my little daughter is just 17 months). Your words really helped me right now. I do feel better when I hear from an experienced person that these will go away. You know, it is hard... I will do my best. Where is that tracker, by the way. Thanks a lot again... Hosein

[tomskat]

P.S. I'm 284 days clean!!Whoot whoot!!! :):)

[tomskat]

Hi there and congratulations on your success!! Yes, what you are experiencing is normal. The first 4-5 weeks are the toughest but you should be through the worst of it now. Hold your head high my friend!!Stay strong and keep going...pretty soon your 4 weeks will turn into 4 months! Do you use the tracker for addiction? It's a wonderful tool that helps you visually see how far you've come plus lets you add any symptoms you may be experiencing. Good luck to you!!Pm me anytime!!~A

[Hosein2000]

Hi Tomskat, I have been clean for 22 days from 3 80mg Oxyx/Day, but still do not feel normal. Is it normal? I have read that week 4 is when we see turning the corner and by week 5, somehow normal. I hope this is the case. I am struggling to stay clean and be able to function. Any comments? Thanks, Hosein
