141days or a few days shy of 5months clean

I am just a few days shy of being clean 5 months and the last few months have just flown by. Dont get me wrong I have good days and bad days still. I have been coping by going back to school and getting out of the house. I find myself slipping into depression when I have been home to many days in a row. I just wanted to update everyone on my progress I know many of you are just starting the battle to beat methadone and I am just here to tell you "YOU CAN DO IT" . I want to say thank you to all of you that have been here for me thru this process and continue to be here for me. THANK YOU!!!

hey jen, it is great to hear from you thanks for the update. congrats on your clean time.
keep working your recovery. that is awesome you are going to school, paralegal is a good job, pays well and yes you can work after only 2 yrs.
you have good and bad days. guess what me to and i didnt detox from meth. it is just life.
we have to take the good with the bad. learning to deal with them and how we handle it is the challenge. please check in once and a while. i hope you are still praying and seeking the LORD. how is your family?
may the LORD continue to bless you and keep you
