Failed today!

Wanted to make today my first day with no Norcos but could not do it.  DAMN!   Was feeling fine then about 9am had the usual early w/d problems.  Pain started to increase and then all of a sudden I was angry and my anxiety was off the charts.  Just now is the anxiety beginning to subside.  I've only taken 15mgs today and am fighting the urge right now to take another one.  

Going to try and start tomorrow.  Cant believe I am not mentally stronger.

Dont give up!!  One day at a time........truly is all we have. We beat ourself up but just pick yourself up and start again. The problem is ........it isnt that we arent mentally strong our minds have been taken over by the demon of the drugs!  we are all here for you.
