Day 40 and feeling in control !

by Jimmy1975, Sep 08, 2008 02:36PM
Hi people , Its day 40 and i`m doing pretty well . I still have the fear of the fear about anxiety . I would put that at about 85% free of anxiety . If I would have taken my dose of two or three 10/500`s like I was prescirbed my doctor says this probably would not have been so hard on me . Instead I would take two or three at a time just once a day . I guess the morale of the story is to take your meds as prescirbed . (LOL) Right ! I hope I can do just that in the future . Best to all !!!    Jim

Congrats Jimmy!!! you are an inspiration to many of us. I hope I can hit 40. How long were you on them and did you go c/t? Any suboxone/counseling?

Doesn't it feel great to get over the anxiety? I think that is the WORST part of the withdrawal process. But once your over that hump, and when you begin to deal with day-to-day stress without "help" you find that it really isn't as bad as you had thought.

Good job to you, and you will do great in the future. Keep it up!

I was taking 2 or 3 , 10/500`s a day 5 days a week for about 9 months. Second time for this . Did the samething before last year . Never been addicted to anything in my life . I tappered for about 3 days then just stopped ! No Suboxone just counseling . They said my habit was really not that bad  but I nipped it in the bud just in time .  For me the worst was the anxiety as I do have an anxiety disorder . (GAD) . You know its funny I didn`t have any problems with anxiety for years until this . No Meds (AD) or anything . Jimmy
