Im glad that your still hanging in there. I'm ending my day four as well and have found that the anxiety has kinda gone away, for now. Im sorry to hear about your home situation. I hope you find someone to confide in. I find that it really helps to be able to talk to someone. I know I was really scared and nervous to admit I had failed and allowed myself to ...

Thanks for the comment and the support, it means...

Im currently on my day four right now and if I would have had any vics left, I probably would have done the same thing. Just recognize it and learn from it. And like everyone else has said, if you have any left, please get rid of them as I dont think we are strong enough yet to control ourselves, especially when going through withdrawl symptoms. You got to 4 ...

yeah, about one or two days a month. And i would probably need about 2 a day, give or take, maybe up to 3 or 4 each day if the pain is really bad. Do you think that would be manageable? Or should I not even risk it?
