Another Roll Call

[gizzy32]

I know it has not been quite a month yet, but I see so many new people here now and it's always good to hear clean time regardless how long. To all those starting out in your recovery right now, stick to it and you will see all the positive changes to come, it just takes a bit of time to heal. We are all in different stages of recovery and it's the new people that come here that help us too by reading their stories. Ok everyone, brag away about your clean time. I am 208 days clean from cocaine, at one time my record was 11 days clean in 5 years, it's been shattered, lol. It's feels great to be FREE!

I always love to play the "gizzy games".

629 days here---one day at a time....

[HelpinUtah]

269 days clean from Lortab.  

I have to be careful though because I've been in a ton of pain lately and I've taken darvocet more regularly than I'd like and I'm worried that I could end up with another addiction.  I've been speaking with my therapist about it and right now he's not concerned, but he's helping keep an eye on me.  ;)  

Congrats everyone!!!!

[gizzy32]

[doogie86]

so i'm really scared. and i need opinions. i suffer from endometriosis, poly cystic ovarian syndrome, and adenomyosis, and it's extremely painful. my surgery 5 months ago is when i started abusing lortabs. i have chronic pain on occasion and lortabs or vicoden are the only thing that helps it so i have a constant prescription. i'm so scared that i'm not going to be able to stay clean because of that.
