OK ... TODAY'S THE DAY

[mindy123]

Today is day 1 for me ... yesterday I had 14 of the 7.5 VICs but TODAY I am going to have none. Partly because I don't have any way to get anymore but mostly because I am just fed up with the hunt. Anyway, today I am actually feeling pretty darn good. My last 5 was at 6:30 last night so I should be feeling really really crappy. But prayer is going to get me thru this, I don't have any choice. I wish there were something I could do incase I do start feeling bad but I am keeping a very positive attitute and I am NOT going to feel bad. Pray for me OK?

Well ... I suck. Yesterday afternoon when I went to lunch I had a moment of weakness, so I guess I kind of start over. I stopped off at a dental clinic thinking I could get a prescription. Well, I did but it was only Tylenol 3's which I don't even care for but I took anyway. So, does that mean today is now day 1? Or since it isn't the same as vicodin can I still count this as day 2? Anyway, I don't understand what happened because I honestly wasn't feeling that bad at all. Wasn't sick, no diarriah (sp?) no depression which I usually get pretty quick. And again today my body is fine. My MIND wants them but my body is ok. I should be so drowsy and depressed but I'm really doing ok. I can't wait for church tomorrow, I really need some serious worship and prayer. Anyway, thanks for all the encouraging words.

Thanks for the words... to answer your question, no I can not get anymore period. So I have to do this. I still feel pretty good. Feeling just a little, but usually at this point I'm feeling it so bad I can't stand it. one time I did quit for about a week and it was a cake walk ... i did it with God's help, he alone took it away from me and then I spit in his face by getting back on them just because I could. Anyway, just keep praying for me I know I can do it again.

hey, I hope your still feeling well.  It's a great idea but in reality it's soooooooooo much harder.  Each hour will continue to get worst once you start to do feal the w/d's.  

Can you get anymore from your doc?
if not, can you let him know whats going on about wanting to tapper?  Most doctors seem to be helpful in wanting someone to detox.

wishing you the best, take care, Robin
