Mid-Way Through Day 7

So I'm about half way through day 7 of c/t quitting from basically any type of pain pill (perc, vic, oxy).  I'm starting to feel better, I've been able to sleep half decently the last couple nights, even made it to the gym on day 5.  My problem is now I am just sitting around and relaxing on a Sunday afternoon and I sorely want to feel that warm feeling that we all know about.  I'm pretty certain that this is 100% mental as the majority of the physical symptoms are gone  

To be perfectly honest, if I hadn't physically removed myself from where I was living for the last week I absolutely would nothave made it this long.  In fact, I spent the better part of two days trying to get a "friend" to fedex me a bunch of pills, fortunately his supplier didn't come through so I haven't really had any choice but to be clean.  Between wanting that feeling and the fact that I'm going back home in two days (what would be day 9) I can basically see the relapse coming so I feel kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Geepers, you sound like me.  I have tried to trick myself so many ways, even used Bank Safety Deposit Box, so I could only get them during banking hours.

This time, the way is has worked (6 days) for me sounds really weird.  But if I knew I couldn't get some really easily, THAT would have completely pissed me off and I would have done what you did.  Get some (or fiend) and a large order at that.

So..I kept 5 pills on hand the whole way through.  If I "****-blocked" myself, I would have had to get even.  What a bunch of cracked-up thoughts, anyway...it worked and I gave them away yesterday and that was that.  

This is probably bad advice for most people, but my point is keep trying until you find out what works!!

Good thoughts for you.
