October Roll Call

It's that time of the month to brag about your clean time everyone. Even if you on suboxone or methadone and not abusing drugs, feel free to give your clean time. I am battling cravings lately and hoping they pass soon, but am 83 days clean. I can't even remember the last time I used my DOC, getting close to a year I think from cocaine:). I can't remember and that is a good thing. I don't miss those days at all!!! Congrats to everyone, even if your a day clean, that is a start:) BRAG AWAY!

[dominosarah]

528 days here.

Gizzy, get to a meeting!!  You are stronger than these cravings my friend.  Try and figure out what has got you in the craving mode.  Make a list of all the things you are grateful for....that always helps me.                 mp

[BIKERDAD1963]

Today is day 37 for me. Hope it gets easier! I also am battling the cravings. Seems like every other week i get the cravings bad.

[Axl_0113]

day 17 here (i think) lol

Still going strong!

[whitie]

128 days

I dont know what it is, but since day one I have had no cravings at all...  just total desire to be free, and now enjoying life better than ever.

I am wondering if its shell shock from the methadone wd's

[slapperman]

28 days, I get the crave and I go to meetings everyday. It helps but even know I  remember the WD, the SH!T I lost and FU, my addiction makes me forget I have an addiction. Then I double check my bank account and then it all comes back. I may be new to being clean but going to meetings makes me remember why I hope to GOD I don't go back. I am a machine and once you put fuel in this baby it don't stop.

Gizzy, i've had cravings too and my "new" friends, tell me they're not really cravings at this point, but it's the obsession, so ive been doing what i did my 1st 30 days and that is to pray for the obsession to be removed.. my 2 cents worth.

[SandySlope]

Around 36 days no Norcos!!! I appreciate this site for all of the help and inspiration. I am feeling really good about myself in doing this with very little help aside from this board. My only lingering issues are fatigue which is driving me nuts, but I just gotta remember how acute withdrawals were and be thankful I am where I am at today. I definitely never want to go back because I am determined to get my brain to heal in full, and the feeling of not waking up dope sick is quite a newfound treasure I never want to let go again.

[struggling_college_student]

Well im back everyone......3 days clean after a 6 month clean period then relapse.......major bummer but Im back on the wagon and thanks for all the support on this site!!

Jeff
