Hey gatsby for some reason 14 was hard day yesterday for me push thru the feelings.  I think it was a big trigger in my head of oh I made it.  I got pills around also ad my pain is not good in back however 14 seems different than 13 and harder....Make it to 15.  You can do it just keep busy and if you have pills get rid of them someway, toss, have someone hold, have someone hide, or whatever you can do.  So I made it and I could have easily slipped up any that are pushing for this God Bless ya all and God bless this forumn....Gotta love these volunteer damn good folks...

Post on your success on hitting day 15........Hoooooooray

Do you have some supplements & stuff to help you through?? You need some potassium, calcium magnesium zinc, gatorade, immodium, to have on hand! Using is NOT an option, it is what got you here in the 1st place. I am on day 10 & feel a little better everyday. Please let us know how you are! Julie

I said yesterday that relapse was not a requirement.  It is not.  I know you have a lot of big goals right now like quitting, losing weight, and eating better.  All of these things are big goals but they all take making the first step.  I hope you don't use.  Instead of looking at the large goals look at the goals that are more easily reachable like this:

I don't ever want to use again-----I will not use today
I want to lose weight---------I will start by eating fruit and oatmeal for breakfast and eat breakfast every day.
I want to eat healthier-------When you go to the store buy lots of fruit, vegetables, and fish (if you can tolerate fish).  If you need some chocolate or sweets buy small packages of it so you can finish that package and satisfy the sweet tooth.

It is truly one day at a time.  Sometimes 1 minute or 1 hour but you can do it....Good Luck

Hey-  You just can't use. Period. Accept it. Only then will it begin to get easier. Your brain wants you to use and these thoughts are how a relapse comes to be!!  You have some control here...use your brain and your mind!

Are you getting any help/support with this??
