This site has b een a real life-saver for me. I'm 39 days clean now of oxys and percs, and have had my ups and downs, as expected, thru this whole w/d process Before I came here, I actually contemplated suicide when thinking I wouldn't have my pills to keep me going thru the day. However, from day one of cold turkey, none of those thoughts came to me, in large part due to all your help and support.
Now my kids are going thru really tough times, and both are drug addicts in one way or another. I hope I have the knowledge needed to keep them going. It's going to be difficult to try to get them clean, I know that - but I'm going to try my best. They're both full grown sons with kids of their own so have plenty to live for. But they're both very stubborn, just as I was - it's a family trait, lol - that and addictive personalities, which very likely came to me from both my parents, and I've passed along to my kids.
As usual, any comments or suggestions will be appreciated. These kids are far too stubborn for me to convince on my own. fyi, one smokes weed and sleeps all day; the other probably buys oxys, percs, valium, whatever else he can buy on the street and is 2 mos. behind in rent and about to be evicted.
