Addict logic?

[J_friend]

Well, since my energy is still quite low (after 15 days without Norco), my mind is beginning to say, "Hmmm ... this isn't normal - perhaps something is wrong with your health ... there's only ONE way to fine out - do and experiment:  get another 100 Norco, take them for 3-4 weeks, and see if you feel better."    Yeah, I know ... it's ludicrous, but it's interesting how my mind works when I'm physically tired and depressed.  As I've expressed before, I just want to feel good again - and I'm having a difficult time remembering WHY I'm choosing to be sober.  I've just got to keep the faith that energy and LIFE are only going be found with a clear mind ... and right now, it's difficult.

Thanks, my friends, I appreciate the feedback.  I know I have to "fight the good fight", and it's refreshing to know that I can come here, go to a meeting, etc. ... I don't have to do it alone.

Check out the Thomas Recipe on the forum search - - DO NOT underestimate the strong need for the nutrition and particularly the L-tyrosine amino acids to rebuild neural pathways and energy..........

yeah it is addict logic ,non addict logic is if you are worried  go get checked out by the doctor make sure everything is A OK but fatigue at 15 days is totally normal.I found that exercise really did speed up the energy problem . you will get threw this ,just keep taking it one day at a time

Well, I'm glad you recognize it for what it is......addict logic.  It's hard to deal with stress and life without the drugs once you've been on 'em for so long...  You've got to fight, and you're right, have faith that things are gonna kick a&& when you're through this....
