not a question, really, an introduction !!

Hi...

I want to introduce myself as I have been one of those "lurking" on this site for about a month.  I am a recovering Vicodin addict and want to say thank you to all of you for sharing your experiences and your stories....it has given me strength and knowledge on a daily basis.  On April 18th I will have 6 months clean and I am so proud !!  I originally came across this site looking for answers to how Methadone is used for Vicodin withdrawal as a family member also addicted was given this in her detox and I didn't understand why and how it would work.  Now I am addicted to the site !!  If I can be of help to anyone just ask......  would love to share some of what I have learned and I agree with most of you that AFTERCARE is the key to success.....  we never really "have this" without support.  The demon is always lurking....waiting for us to be vulnerable so it can POUNCE !!!  
Thanks and Bless you all !!!
