this ***** just like the last time thought I was going to pass out when I put the script in the shredder 180 pills on thurs. bye bye beautiful day in so cal heading out for some air thanks for all the support did I mention I slept 3 hours last night hahaha expecting bought the same tonight just ate a pile of bananas an bunch of yogurt wish me luck check back in tonight.
Hi Jerry! Good for you wanting to quit!! Thats a great step in the right direction!! I would agree that you should cancel that script...it will be way too tempting to know that it is there waiting for you! If you can cut all your ties to the pills it will give you a better chance at success! Our addict minds will give us any reason to go out and get more! I know for me if I didnt do that I would have been back at my Dr many times over the last 5 months!
Its good that you have the vitamins and are getting ready!! Have you started taking them yet? Give them a chance to start building up in your system!
We are here for you!
Keep on posting and let us know how you are getting on!!!

I am not going to be the one to shoot you down Jerry but dude I could retire if I had a nickel for every time a panicked addict who was temporarily out of drugs came here then disappeared. I AM you Jerry. I get it. I really do man. But if you are Really ready to get off this ride, call tomorrow and cancel your script. Call Monday and tell your doc you want No More. It's hard buddy but not impossible! You can do it!
