Friday the 13th Roll Call

by gizzy32, Mar 13, 2009 07:57AM
What better day to have another roll call than Friday the 13th, lol. We haven't had one this month and since I got through that craving yesterday I wanted to put this up, haha. Congrats to everyone here, even those still tapering and trying to get clean. We have a great family here with a lot of success so brag away.

I am 130 days clean from cocaine and am thankful everyday for that.:)

73 days from oxys

by Dezdon, Mar 13, 2009 09:25AM
Finaly away from my DOC.(oxy's)  completely. Got honest with my Dr. and was placed on a non-pill type pain managment program. The daily crazy addiction behavior and obsession has stopped. The chornic pain is managed very well without the terifying addictive behaviors. I hope this sticks. Im learning new thinking. And in NA aftercare. I feel like I am back where I was 8 months ago before I was introduced to my nymisis, oxy.

166 days off Hydros. Congrats on your time everyone. If we put all of the money we saved from not using drugs together we could probably buy an apartment building somewhere in the middle of the country, fly ourselves out there and have a pizza party. :o}

Lessee now....almost 4 months off the Vicodin, and 37 days clean from Tramadol.  It must have been the phase of the moon because 2 days ago I had pretty bad craving myself.  All's well now.  

You're right, Gizz.  This is like a family.  Thanks, all.  Your stories, your triumphs, your frustrations, they all help.  

by liscamdave, Mar 13, 2009 02:31PM

37 days off hydos 35 off Ultram ER.
Do still have cravings but only occasionally are they pretty strong  (my mind can really mess with me! but I just tell my mind to stop causing trouble!).  Continue to find doing things without drugs is pretty different but ok and getting better all the time. Pain has improved and even when I do have pain I have different ways to cope.

I am so proud of myself, and all of you who even attempt this, it is a couragous journey!  I am so looking forward to triple digits!

by bucksfan, Mar 13, 2009 06:44PM
Not sure how many days. I do know that when I am busy things are good. Idle hands are the devils playground. Cravings and Boredom hit hard when I get off and come home. Major trigger is my house!

Ive been clean from methadone since the beginning of June '08, I went the suboxone route this time around and have been off sub since Oct.20. It took awhile for my mind and body to feel "normal" again but I can honestly say I havent felt this good in a long time. The biggest difference during this detox has been my willingness excercise, its probably been the single most important aspect of getting my health back. So to everyone out there where ever you are in your recovery, all I can say is try to get some moderate excercise, it helps more than any medication Ive ever taken. So get up and get out, even a nice walk can make a difference in the long run. Okay Im done with the excercise preach, good luck to all with your continued success.
