5 days clean.... cravings hit! ACK

[elements74]

I am 5 days clean and to me that is a HUGE milestone. I have found an online journal I write in and it talks back to me. How you ask does it talk back to me.. Well it is actually my sister in another state. I write to her and she is my loving family support group. However I come on here because I know I am not alone here. Now I have cravings, mild pain that is controlled with motrin, sleep induced with OTC sleep aids and I am GOOD TO ROLL.. Still feel jittery like I have had to much caffeine, but still feel great. Everyday is getting better. I trusted one person in my family to do my daily journal with and the love and support of a family member who has experienced it or has gone through something similar before I recommend you seek out. Great advice from strangers and people going through the same thing. But mentally feel better to know that you are still loved and not judged by one who loves you. I am now just suffering the cravings of wanting one... I hope that gets better too. Good luck and thanks for all your help through the really really bad past few days.
