My thoughts....

What a difference a day makes. Yesterday was such a rotten day but thanks to all my friends here I am back to myself today. When i found this forum back in December i thought i would drop in, ask some questions, get some help and call it a day. Boy, was i wrong!!! Finding this forum is the best thing that could have ever happened to me. I have received so much help and support and made some true friends here. Some i hope for life! Who would have ever thought! Not me thats for sure. I am 7 months clean today! 7 months!! I still have a hard time believing it. I struggled for so many years trying to rid myself of these pills. Like they say..you have to really want it and this time around i guess i was truelly ready. Its like a complete circle, when i first came i was in need of help and now i am in a place in my life were i can offer that same help back to those who need it. It feels so good to help someone when they are in need. Obviously i still have my days but i come here and "cry" to all of you and you help me get threw the day. I feel as though i owe so many of you so much.
I also now that someday i will really be in need of pain meds. This i think is going to be my next lesson in life. Learning to take back control over something that had such control over me for so long. How? I dont know. When i get there i will lean on all of you support.
Thank you all again! I feel as though i owe you all so much!
hugs to you all,
Jen
