25 days without subutex!!!

Hi how are you all. Its 5.48am, and im sitting outside with my coffee and cigarette looking at the beautiful sky on day 25 off subutex.

Yesterday was a bad day, couldnt get warm and just felt sick. But that was yesterday. The 3 days before that were great. Today is another great day. I can feel it and my body tells me, im ok today. Yes it is a rollercoaster, but im going to enjoy the ride.

I didnt feel aweful yesterday, just sick. But I was still happy, not sad. This is a very uplifting forum. Some of them, alot of people still drug rave. But this forum is genuine and all of the people are troopers. They are brave, proud and moving forward, or at least trying.

Looking forward to 4 weeks in a couple of days. Actually, christmas day will be 4 weeks clean for me. What a way to celebrate christmas.

Approx day 10 was the serious turn point for me, if I remember correctly. But isnt life great, when you can sit outside when you first wake and not have to think where your next hit is going to come from. Drug addiction is a full time job. We scheme, scam, and are constantly using our brain to get our next hit. Now those thoughts are gone, my brain doesnt have to hurt anymore with all that hard stress.

I hope your all ok. Thanks everyone xx

good job!  i'm 22 days clean today.  I just posted a very similar thought about how great it is to not be counting pills and worrying about getting my next refill, etc.  It's not easy and my brain is still learning to enjoy things without drugs, but we are doing it and getting there.

Congrats and keep it up!
