I have been to n/a before. But I need to go consistantly, and really invest, I didn't, I felt un comfortable. I need to really give it a chance.
I thought you had gone to NA??
Time to change your phone number. Those dealers dont care about you, all they care about is their money. Dont threaten them as that can bring you troubles you dont need. You will feel all kinds of emotions right now. They have been numbed up for so long we forget how to feel.
Hey Jojo- Wow. Great job on day 6!
I totally agree w/ Merri- do not threaten anyone. I am really confused as to why someone would suggest such a thing. You don't need more trouble, you need less. Besides we can't control everything. You may run into a dealer at the store (I did), we have to learn to deal. Changing your ph # is a great idea.
Now, do not, I repeat do NOT expect normal, calm feelings right now. I know day 6 feels like a long time, but in the scheme of things, it's a blip. Your brain has got to heal. Right now you will have all kinds of emotions that have been suppressed for years. So, yes, you're right on schedule:)
Great job on going to meetings (you are, right?)
Just keep doing what your doing jojoba. Day 6 is really good. I always say it is about 10-14 days before you feel good. So you are 1/2 way there. You'll start slowly feeling better.
I would hesitate to threaten any dealer with the cops or that you will tell. I would be afraid of them coming back at you physically etc. just keep blocking each number and deleting.
Yes, I'm going to do aftercare, just havnt figured it out how, but I know its needed because I. Needed someone to talk to, and a sponser would have been great. I'm feeling a lil better, just irratated. But now I. Have to learn new coping skills. Because those evil pills are not the answer. I want a fresh start in my life, a new me. And those thing only brought me pain. They have left me tears too many nights. The pain and anxiety is not worth it, so I stand strong, leaning on Gods hand.

Your doing great. You could have talked to them or us. You picked us. Change your number. Go to AA/NA.
Do everything different. Your doing good, honesty, no secrets.
Tell us we can take it. I'm on day 20 starting to feel good
can u text the dealers back and say ur telling the cops they deal if they contact u again? I did this and it worked. I texted and said "this is her husband and if u ever f***ing contact her again EVER...i'm going to the cops and telling them u deal and giving them ur address and phone number. DONT CONTACT MY WIFE AGAIN!!! that was over 1.5 yrs ago and I never heard from the dealer again. desperate times call for desperate measures.
It will get better. It will get better. It will get better. Be so proud of yourself for erasing the text. Way to go! Woohoo for day 6! Keep pushing forward jojo, one day at a time. One hour at a time. One minute at a time. Keep it up girl!
I am on Day 6 as well and still experiencing nausea and withdrawal symptoms. Hang in there. It gets better.
You may need to change your phone nbr. so your dealers can't contact you.
Have you decided if you will do any aftercare?
