Just realized! I'm 4 months clean today!

I'm VERY happy about it but wow it's been hard.  Some awsome weeks and some stressful ones mixed in.  With no real rhyme or reason to it.  I'm ready for those PAWS anxiety attacks to back off.  Any time now would be fine with me. LOL.  

I could not/would not have made it this far without this place!  Thanks for all the awesome support and advice from everyone.  You know who you all are!

To celebrate I stopped by GNC and finally found some L-Thieanine to help me relax.  I have to say that it works great.  Like a mild xanex or valium but without making me sleepy.  I wish I'd tried it weeks ago!
