the weekend is here and im worried

not so much that im going to break down and use cuz honestly even if i wanted to i cant drive on weekends and wouldnt be able to go get anything....im more worried about the boredom....i dont know what to do with myself.

my plan was to see what happens if i stop the low dose of subs after five days....but part of me wants to go out hang out with CLEAN friends the few i have left....but i know if i dont take the subs i wount feel like doing that....should i not be pushing the being social thing....i mean i know its good for me mentally and you know what they say about ideal hands.

You have been given the list of things you need.  I highly recommend those Epsom salt baths as hot as you can stand and as many as you want...they are good for relaxing those rls as well as relaxing the mind. Crank the music, watch funny movies, distract that brain of yours. No time like the present my friend...no time like the present. Trust me, if we can all get through this so can you.  We come from all walks of life, all ages, all with work and family obligations.  We aren't any more special..we aren't any more resilient.  We just did it cuz we knew in our minds and hearts there was no other option that came with positive results. You know this...you know the routine...want it bad enough as we want it for you! Sending you prayers for strength, healing, courage!  You got this!
