7 days and 16 hours!

One week down. Physical symptoms are much better. I slept well again last night. I am feeling fantastic. Pill free and loving life. I am convinced that I will not relapse. I truly have no desire. I am just so ready to move on. I no longer have a valid prescription and have no way of getting pills. I'm done. I know I will still get cravings, but they are manageable for me. I am here to say that stopping isn't easy, but it can be done!!

You are very welcome...right at 48 hours right now.

It's about my "pill" time and I'm having an apple and green tea!

I feel oddly okay; this wd I have worked on the mental side tremendously, by keeping my thoughts positive. I just sit here and read and post to pass the time.

That is so tough of you to cut off your supply, This go around I messaged my contacts and said don't contact me, I'm not doing those anymore...it felt good and helped this go around.

I can tell you are in this for the long haul and you got it. Best wishes, and see you on here.

There you are, jlannspr! I missed you yesterday. I do understand the comfortable part. Luckily, I have no way of getting more pills now. I wouldn't even know how to get them on the street. Mine has always been a prescription and I let it run out on purpose. How are you doing today? How long has it been for you now? I hope you are getting a little better every day. I am really feeling good this morning. A few lingering symptoms, but nothing like the first few days. Thanks for checking in.

You sound like you are a great place. Personally, I got sick thinking of pills around 5-15 days after quitting. Then I got comfortable...

Don't get comfortable, always remember where you came from.

You are strong and a fighter and I hope you never have to relive these 7 days again, and you won't.
