hey all, a little update

Im doing ok I guess, I got my rx yesterday and only took 14.  Getting better at this I think.  Im proud of myself.  Husband is still gone.  Day 9.  Says he wants a divorce and doesnt love me anymore.  Hes saying anything he can to hurt me.  My son refuses to talk to him still and my husband is blaming me for that.  Im not encouraging or discouraging it, its up to him, I said Id stand behind whatever decision he makes.  Im not as numb anymore and now Im really starting to see maybe my marriage was a lie after all.  Only been married for 11 months thought he was the one thats why I waited so long, maybe now not the case.  Time to work on finding a job again.  Was going to do it today but to much damn snow to go anywhere.  Still working on me and my sanity.  Will continue to do so.  Thanks to the private ims everyone sent me.  I appreciate it!!!  I really need ya all!!!  I need friends right now, Im lonely and talking helps sometimes

Tapering was the way for me, it'd have killed me without doing it that way.  You gotta get there somehow, whatever works is the right way.

Not making any promises, I just know I am taking it 1 day at a time and leaving it at that. If I make it there then the answer is yes.  I am proud of myself at the way Ive tapered so far and thats all I can say

i was taking 40 es a day, told my husband he left me now Im tapering.  yesterday only took 14.  40 to 14 big difference.  but you know what, not really physically as hard as I thought it would be.  I guess everyone is different.  But I only went 1 day without anything.  That was hard.  We will see what happens when I get down to the 6 a day as prescribed.  Thats the goal.  And to get over the husband leaving me thing.

I'm glad you're doing better today.  I'm sorry about the situation with your husband.  I can't imagine how tough it is to go through all of this at the same time.  It's snowing here too, and the kids are gonna let out in 3 min.  Sucks not to be able to go anywhere.  My hubby has the vehicle with 4WD today, so I'm grounded too.  I'm better today as well.  I actually exercised today a little.  Wasn't exactly back friendly, but I'm still glad I did it.  Hang in there kid,  Jacqui

I trying to be, its hard when someone leaves you with alot of overwhelming responsibilities plus an addiction to overcome.  Shows that person is a piece of **** and then refuses to help only when court will make him.  (not a man, a coward) in my book.
But Im staying strong and will do whatever I can to survive as I have in the past.  Realizing I dont need a man to make it, nights are long, but will get used to it, when Mr Right is there hell find me until then theres always the (friend in the drawer)  LOL
just kidding.  needed to laugh today guys!!!!

It will get better. I see that you live fairly close to me and this snow sucks! It just won't stop. Now I'm definitely not condoning divorce, but you are worthy of more than you are getting. I hope you realize this.

Kind of confused about the post. The first part said you got your RX out yesterday and already took 14 pills, but then after it, it says something about day 9.. So is this a tapering method?  Haven't seen any other posts, sorry..
