Another Roll Call
It's only been a few weeks since I did a roll call, but I want to read about all your success regardless if it's only a day clean. I am craving bad today and just want to cry, swear and maybe punch somebody, lol.
Please brag about your clean time and how your feeling now after stopping? What helps you the most get through a big craving? For me, talking about it right away makes a huge difference, although I guess I still have trouble admitting when I am weak, but right now I am weak. Using is not an option, but those head games are just crazy. Let's hear some positive and brag away everyone. We can do this together, one day at a time:)
I am getting close to 5 months clean again, congrats to all.

Day 383, and still going....congrats to all. If I could do it, anyone can and that is the truth..
Many years ago I went thru a stretch of years of taking Vicodin and I remember thinking "God I can't believe I used to live without these pills". Then I quit for quite a stretch of years and I remember thinking, "God I can't believe I used to live taking those pills every day". Then I started taking them again but I always remembered the period of 6 or 7 years in between and I can't wait till I get back to, "God I can't believe I used to live taking those pills". :)
13 days feels good, but I want to say 2 months or something.

Congrats to everyone on their clean time!! It is so important to make yourself the No1 priority and do whatever it takes to stay on the road to recovery. This should be the most sacred thing in your life. Dont fear the unknown, look at it as a new adventure. sara
535 days thanks to the grace of God, AA, and my family and friends.
How do I feel now that I am sober and working a strong program of recovery? Amazing! Just like I am supposed to!
For anyone struggling with cravings, do yourself a favor and get to an AA/NA meeting, find a sponsor, and work the steps. I haven't had a true craving in over a year, and seldom even think about drugs or alcohol. It works if you work it!
