It's been 2 really bad days coming off

Just 2 hours into day 3 and I feel terrible. Weak cold/warm depressed achy and miserable. Just seems like a hopeless time. Especially this being #4 for me. Perc's and oxy for me. Tuff this time around for sure.

Hey Man, This is part of your story this is your recovery its the pain and misery,
for myself I don’t ever want to forget that,
and thank you for reminding me what its like
the funny thing is it goes away and the insanity of it all is we tell ourselves it will be different the next time and it just gets worse,
stick it out it will be worth it,
if you don’t that’s ok too, just keep trying and then one day you get it, just keep feeding your self with positive thoughts and just know your helping others with your posts letting us all remember what it was like. We just do it one day at a time. we  are never alone Good luck Thank you

my husband and I started just today going to counselling with the pastor of our church and one of the best pieces of advice he gave us was not to even think about anything past today... if you begin to worry about the future you will find youhelrself overwhelmed to the max.. take it one day, one hour, one minute, and one second at a time... you can do it and you do have the motivation you need ... you want to start a family the right way,... clean and sober... best wishes and keep posting ... someone is always here,.

It's mostly the wd symptoms. But there is a fear swelling up about the weeks and days to come because I have went back 3 times already and I just am afraid of doing the same. I get to about 10-14 days then start feeling great then go back. So to answer your question it's the wd symptoms and depression with it right now and the fear of failing again. But I am willing to get through it. If it were nit for my fiancé I don't think I would even do this to be honest. But I know I have to be at my best for
her and I.  That is my motivation. We have plans for marrige and kids but I can't
to it like this.

answer this question what is it the withdrawal symptoms or the cravings after 3 or 4 days. Can you make 3 or 4 days without the stuff? If you can or can't I will tell you hoe exactly to do so. I'm just waiting for your response so at least i'm not doing this for nothing. Got me.

You can do it for good if you want it bad enough... you know that I don't have to remind you of what life is like off the mess.. and that's all it is .. A HUGE MESS... just keep up the good work and before you know it you'll have weeks then months then years behind you... good job...
