Secret DETOXERS watch out!!!

I am coming for ya. I have made it to day 36 without incident. Hard to believe but the days keep piling up. The mental aspect is definitely tough at times, and I soooo want one pill once in awhile. I just got back from vacation and feel great. Lots of family activities, birthdays for the kids, and I had the energy back to make it through everything.
I miss you all, and hope everyone is doing well.

Newbies: Yes, if I can do it so can you. The cravings will become less frequent, you will get energy back, and learn to live without counting pills and clock watching. Please keep posting and this site will help save your life.

Thanks everyone.
One day at a time, one hour at a time. It was very weird the other day but I was truly thinking to myself, why am I going through this. I was thinking I'm sure that if I can make thirty something days surely I can regulate my dosage now.
The answer for all of us is NO!!!
Be strong everyone and thank you so much for all of the support.

Hey Bones! No need to come get me, I'm right here, plugging along! 40 days, I think, for me! The mental aspect is very tough! For me no access to pills,is the key thing! So many times I've thought, "Oh if I just had a pill!" for me it hits really hard when I'm facing a seemingly overwhelming task! The other day, I was trying to clean out my garage! I just stood there thinking if I just had a pill, I could get through this fast and easy, no problem!  Or when I was getting together all my tax crap (yes, I'm late, I know)! All of the things I used to take pills to get me through! Sometimes it feels like I've lost my second set of hands, or my moral support friend! Anyway, congrats on the clean days! Keep moving forward, my friend!!

36 days!!! Who'd a thunk?  
This is an excellent post; I'm glad that you talk about the mental aspect of recovery because that is the part that can creep up and bite us in the butt.
Enjoy your days, enjoy your family...Be proud of what you've accomplished. See you at 60.
