Aa
Day 3....
Sick, not moitvated, tired, etc.......ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!! But I know gotta fight it sounds cliche and can't find it just gotta act like I'm sick with a Flu
Glad to hear you are eating and distracting ur brain. Keep pushing forward my friend. You CAN get thru this!
I'm feeling a bit better just ate some wingstop so yea and about to watch basketball =/
How is day 4? Your physical symptoms should be getting a little better any day now. The hard part now will be readjusting to functioning sober. I'm on day 11 and am starting to see the light through the fog. Another week and you will be here with me! Hope your staying strong.
Thank you for your advice, also yes I've changed my number as well and now basically no one knows my numer except people that support me and been teling me to stop which is my cousin..again THANK YOU!
We have been in your shoes...I remember it like yesterday and that was 70 something days ago. There are so many around here with months and years of clean time under their belts. And guess what? We did it and so can you. The physical WD's $uck...but you will get thru them. Keep pushing forward. Distract your brain and keep as active as you can. Have you cut your sources? No reason to be tempted when you have already come this far...cuz turning down temptation at this point is brutal. I would have caved in a heartbeat had I had the opportunity. Push forward. Use this time to figure out how you are going to stay clean this time around. NA/AA...counseling...church. Whatever path works for you, but find one. Find support cuz the journey to sobriety is long and lonely without it...and often causes us to veer off onto a different road...a road we have traveled before that often leads to destination relapse. You've got this. YOU CAN DO THIS! Keep pushing thru...moving forward!
Yes today is my day 10. I hope your having a decent day as good days are still a way to go. I am kicking 240mg of oxycodone, 32 mg of phentenal 8mgs of dilauded every 6 hours and long term acting morphine.I have 2 types of rare cancer but have decided life is not meant to be numbed out, the good or the bad. It really helps to remind yourself why you want this so badly. On day 7 I started looking around the corner as I am still waiting to turn it. Good Luck we can do this together!
Congrats, also Thank you! How are you feeling today? Should be day 10 for you right?
I'm okay, also thank you for caring. I know it's not the way I'm just trying be more productive and talk to my close cousin which supporting me while I'm doing it and told me before said I should of listen but it's over with now and just go through it and he was addicted to and went through as well, also he's now a graduated from U of H with a Bachelor degree making good money and living happy and got a car he always wanted. He told me I can to also have same thing's just stop and go work and school for it as well, Sadly I took off this semester due to this current situation.
I am on day 9 and it helps for me to say "hours turn into days, days to weeks, weeks to months and months to years." Also what reasonable person would ever want to go through this again. Good luck like an above post said "you got this".
Please don't even begin talking like that here...tell me you will not kill yourself...
It's not a solution to anything...Can you think of anything else you can do to change how you're feeling?

Sometmes I just wanna think sucide but I know not a good way to go. I know..but man I can do it..........................................
I really do want it this time and I am done, also it causes so much "drama" and broke. Nothing good to it but bad bad bad bad and will get worse if keep at it.........
My friend --- I like what your saying, you have to want this and it sounds like you do... Keep pushing your in the thick of it now so focused and in a few days you'll be through the worst of the physicals... Then focus on staying clean...congrats on 3 days!!! Keep posting...
Thank you for your word of wisdom and comment, also mean's a lot to me I've releapse couple times but this time this is it. I'm getting my Freedom back and I want it back and I wanna be happy without none of those Devil Pills.
Sick and tired of being sick and tired! Get through this "flu " and you'll never have to go through this again! Onward and upward! Declare war on it my friend! You got this!
As Diggs would say "You've got this!" Just look it as the price you pay now in exchange for freedom for the rest of your life. You won't have to be sick again, as long as you don't get back into using. It's awful, and focusing on the negative makes the pain worse. Try to think of something good that will happen as a result of your quitting. Yes, now THAT sounds cliche, but whatever it takes right?
you can do it! Maybe it's helpful to think of it as the flu, and that's something you can't fix no matter how bad you want to ya know.
Just try to pass the time. Hell you're three days in already, so stick it out. Pass the time and soothe with music, hot baths, and heating pads.
Good luck. I know my advice is inadequate atm, but just try to do anything you can to get through it other than using!
Your mind has an incredible amount of control over how you feel and your outlook. Some call it cognitive therapy, but just try to sooth with a lot of self talk that doesn't center around the pain, but around your determination and the power you have within you to choose not to use again.
