Taking something right now would emotionally set you back.  I know this is miserable but i promise it wont last.  Hang in there.  You are in control of you now, not your addiction........sara

Thank you. I know its playing tricks but after 7 surgeries in 2 yrs my body hurts so bad. If i could just take one dose of even norco it would help but i cant after this long. Thanks so much for the support. I took motrin, tylenol, and xanax and it helped a little.

Your brain is playing tricks on you right now.  Our pain seems intensified going thru wd.  Keep fighting the craving.  Get busy and get your mind focused on something else....Keep talking        sara
