So I thought I would give everyone an update on my recovery,, I am now 32 days clean from about a 300mg hydro habit,, Cold turkey.. It has been a rough road at times, physically and mentally, but I wouldn't go back for anything at this point,, I can see the other side guys,, It is amazing how we don't see these drugs messing with our minds or bodies while we are using, and even in the process of detox your thinking is not clear,, The opiate is a hard one to say goodbye to, there were many times in the last month that I asked myself if this was really worth it, and I feel I have reached the point in recovery that I can say YES it is worth it,, I am becoming who I have always been, but haven't been for a while because of these pills,, I see life in the perspective that I always did before my opiate days,, I regret that I ever started taking them, but I know by being able to break free gives me the strength to do anything,, I am so proud of all of you that have made it through this journey because it definitely takes some determination and endurance,, And I want to encourage all of those starting this journey that it can be done,, And you will be thankful that you did it,, There are a lot of struggles to break free from drugs but we must learn from them and endure whatever detox and recovery bring us to get ourselves back,, I will always have my love for opiates but I have learned my lesson that I cannot have that love because it doesn't love me back,, It gives you the sense of happiness, comfort, energy, even love, It makes you think you can't live without it,,, But many of us know that is a lie from these
drugs because we can live without them and we can enjoy life without them.. until you completely break free you will have a hard time finding the real things in life to give you those things,,, I want to thank all of you for helping me come to terms with these things, and for answering questions or giving comfort in my moments of need,,, You guys are awesome,,
Lisa
