Another Roll Call

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!

Congrats everyone! Yesterday I came on and had a rare craving. Reading some posts and seeing how we all have to fight sometimes helps me so much. The post about overdosing helped me to read yesterday, it gave me goosebumps and shortly after, my craving started to diminish. I just saw they moved that overdose post to the social side, not sure why, it had to do with addiction and helped a few of us. Ty for all your help here friends, I will be 7 months clean tomorrow, woo hoo.

Well,  school is out for the summer and I will be back on here posting again.  I know you guys will get tired of hearing from me because as you remember, I am quite "long-winded".  I am 512 days sober from ambien/lunesta, and 373 days sober from hydros.  It is just totally amazing that I have gotten this far in my recovery.  It also feels GREAT!!!  Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be able to say that I had this many days behind me.  With loving family, the grace of God, and friends on this forum, it was alot easier than I thought it would be.  I am definately not saying that it was a walk in the park, but it wasn't the hell on earth that getting sober has been in the past [for me that is].

Okay, in case you didn't catch that, it has been 373 sober from hydros and 512 days sober from Ambien/lunesta.  373 DAYS AND 512 DAYS.  In case you missed it, 373 and 512.  OMG!  Thank you God, and Thank you MedHelp
