24 HOURS CLEAN!!

Well, I never thought I would sit here and type this. 24 hours with NO hydrocodone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I went to my dr, got Valium LEGALLY (OMG when was the last time I got a script the right way?!!?) and have taken 2 10 mgs today. I did not tell her about any addiction, but I knew to get over the rough point I had to tell her I needed it. I won't lie, its been tough, there have been times today where I thought my muscles were rubber bands, or certain parts of my body felt extremely hot. Sleeping is much harder. But the valium has been a help. Honestly, I hate the feel of benzos, they make me feel lethargic compared to hydros which did the opposite. They hyped me up. But I tell myself its just temporary (the physical part at least) I have finally admitted to myself that there are mental and emotional aspects of this that have to be dealt with after I get over the worst! Thank you so much for all of your support!!!

It is sooo great you made the fist day. In a couple of the days you will be done with the w/d's. Moving helps too. Walking, even just walking around the house helps.

Really proud of you!!
