5 days clean from methadone

[SmilingBright]

Honestly God has been so good to me throughout this entire process.  I can't be more blessed having as little wds as possible.  My best days are yet to come (pill free).  Thank u Jesus.  Slept 8 hrs last night.  Now time to get ready for work.  

Love you my friends.  Thank u for all the support.

If anyone is thinking of tapering off of md.  Please do it right!!!  Slow and steady as all my mh buddies would tell me.  They were 100% correct.  I owe my life to these people.  

God bless  

I will ck w you guys when I get a break.  No wds !!!!!  Hugs

That really is great. Sometimes though the withdrawals from methadone can take a few days to really kick in because of its really long half life. I know this from experience several times. Praying this doesn't happen to you though. Apologies for the typos As im typing this on my iphone and keep pressing the wrong buttons :-). Im still trying to get. Used to the fentanyl patch as I was on the methadone for 10: years and morphine and oxy before that. Very proud of you though. God bless.

[SmilingBright]

Aww thanks sweetness, Julie and Jen!!! Horst part of day at wk was normal. No problems.

Jen, praying that god carries you through this and you will sart to feel better.  Keep doing what right for in Due season you will reap if you faint not!!!!  You got this girl!!!!!  Keep fighting through. He will carry u through.

Love Chris

I said in my profile that I made it to the beach and now I can start to walk in the sand again...You know the wave thing...lol

[SmilingBright]

Hey vickie,
I'm doing this. By the grace of God Hes getting me through without much of anything.  

Oh and for the record.   I never could hold a whole pile of pills and taper myself.  My hubby had to give me what I needed ev day. Otherwise I was screwed. Lol

Almost fin my wkout.  Feels so good!!!

[toothfairie]

that's so great that you had another good day...especially at work!  keep it up girl....the attitude is great!!  (hugs)  

[SmilingBright]

I honestly did have a great day today!!   And to top it off I ran 3 miles!! Endorphins I get from running us better than any PILL could ever give me.

Thank God!!  Hope u had a good day at wk my tooth buddy;)

[SmilingBright]

So excited to be coming to end on day 5.   Ready to begin my new life without Pills.  I never would have imagined I could be this happy without those dang things.  Amazing how the devil gets in and tells u lies making u think u need them to get through life!!!  It's all just a lie.  

Just for people who are wondering..... People say methadone stores in fat cells and bones.  Well..... While I was on md I ran and ran and ran like forest!!   So Im Not sure if that has anything to do w the way I feel right now.  Just thought I would throw that out there. I'm about 5"9 and 119.  

Still not saying I think it's all over w the wds. But I feel very confident that I will get through this w my ViCTORY!!!  W or without wds!!  I'm DONE with this crap!!!!!!!!   For good.  I'm not looking back!!!  I hate these stupid pills.  I'm blessed w two beautiful kids and wonderful hubby who I want to enjoy for the rest of my life!!!

Ok.  I'm off my soap box.  Praying for all my buddies!!  God bless

[FourJays]

3 miles????  Bragger . . . .LOL  I have been draggin my butt on the treadmill almost daily for the last 3 months and I still couldn't RUN 3 MILES!!!  (ofcorse I am LOTS older :))

You are the bomb - keep it up!

[toothfairie]

good for you for doing the run!  i've always wanted to be a runner but....i'm just too lazy....aaahahahaha!!  i DO need to get back into the gym tho...at least do the treadmill and a little weight training...

maybe you can inspire me to start back!  who knows what we can do without pills!  right??  i took them for so many years and had false energy that i don't even know yet what i'm capable of doing...lol  

congrats on making it thru the 5th day girlie!  you rock on!!!  

[SmilingBright]

Pahaha.  Julie, not bragging.  I was running ALOT more when I was on pills. But that's ok!!!!  I will learn to fight through without the fake energy!!!!!!

Lol. Crazy girl. You can do anythingif u want it bad enough.  I make myself excercise bc the endorphins feel sooooo good!!! I have a treadmill at Hm.  It's one of my best friends. Lol

How was ur day Julie?

[toothfairie]

i've been thinking about getting a treadmill too!  but i don't want it to be a clothes hanger....lol   i have an extra bedroom that is empty....maybe i should fill it up with workout stuff!  

[SmilingBright]

Omg toothfarie !!  I wish I had an extra room for my treadmill.  Not much extra room
In the house. But I don't care    I love it!! Lol. I use it ev day and am addicted to it too!!  Lol. I get easily addicted to things.  Lol. At least this is a good addiction.  Right??  
I have lots and lots of videos and weights at Hm too.  

Hi my name is Christina.  I'm addicted to my treadmill.   Lol.

There.  I said it.  Lol

[FourJays]

I had a pretty good day today, thanks you -

You keep it up; this is REAL energy you are "running" on now!  

I (reluctantly) make my self exercise too, in fact if I go for more than a few days without walking (I don't "run" ever - unless maybe there is a fire), I get moody & don't sleep as well.  I have to keep up the weights too - since my neck surgery, if I don't do them at least 3 or 4 days a week, it starts to hurt - a lot.  I wish I would have started all of this like 25 years ago, maybe I never would have "needed" a pill in the first place!

It truly is amazing what exercise does - both for your mind and body.  And it's never too late to start . . . . just in case anyone out there is thinking bout it . . . :)

[FourJays]

I thought mine WAS a clothes hanger until about 3 month ago!!!!!

[SmilingBright]

You are so right Julie.  Never too late to start.  Also doing some kind of excercise  will make u feel than none at all.  

Thanks julie!!  Keep it up!! U r doing great.   Didn't u say u were gonns clean up around house today!!?? How did that go!!?

[toothfairie]

Well i'm thinking about it....lol  but just haven't DONE it yet...i used to be good about going to the gym right after work....cuz i KNOW i'm not getting up at 5am to work out!  will. not. happen.  lol

and i know i'd feel better....ugggg just thinking about starting the process again makes me want to cry and claw my face...lmao  but i know I have to start it back...and i've never LIKED to do it...and i certainly wasn't addicted to it....i wish i was!!  lol
