Well,last night and today went well i must say.I slept very good and was able to wake up with no problems.The xanax that he perscribed me are only .25 mg,so they are not that strong.This is a good thing because they worked perfectly.

I took my other med this morning and it seemed to help a little.The doctor told me it would take about 2 weeks for them to really take effect.However,i dont feel to bad today.At least better than if i had nothing.Im really excited to see how they will work after a few weeks.

Last night,i had a long talk with my mother and my brother about the problem.That wasnt easy to do,but they were very supportive.Both of them said they knew about it,but didnt want to tell me what i should do.

I think im done with them for good now.No,i know i am.I realize now that i can do this.

So far so good.That doctor did very well i seen i believe.

Ill keep you all updated on my progress.Hope everyone else is doing good as well.

Thanks everyone.

Finally,its done.I cant tell you how weird it was to tell someone my problem.But,i do feel a little better now.We talked for about half an hour and he seemed to understand.I actually believed this doctor wanted to help,which is good.

The doctor did perscribe me a couple of things.One being Alprazolam.I suppose these will help me sleep.The other being Wellbutrin."which were very expensive even with insurance".

I trusted his judgement on this and i will go through the program with the perscriptions.I know in a few weeks ill be getting "the call" and i pray ill have the strength to say im done with them.

My head is killing me right now.I can tell my body is aching for the pain med i have taken for years now.Im going to try a Alprazolam now as he suggested and try to lay down.

Step 1 is done.I finally stepped up and did something.I feel really good about this right now.

I have to catch a flight at 6am,so if i dont check back tonight "i guess that means the perscription worked and im sleeping good",i will check back here as soon as i can tommorrow evening.

Take care everyone.

I made a appointment early this morning,but its not till 7pm.Still a couple of hours till i go.I have been nervous all day about the visit.What to say,questions he will ask...ect.I dont have alot of faith in doctors "no offence to anyone here who is a doctor" simply because i have had the "run around" so much in the past.

Thank you for thinking of me.I really appreciate that.Today has been crazy due to so much to do.I have not had any pain pills today and i have a massive headach right now.Im all out of them,so i guess this is day 1 for me.

Ill be back in a little while after i see the doctor and will post the resultes as soon as i walk in the door.

Thanks again,i hope your doing good as well.

Wish me luck!

Hey sweetie, I am doing good today. I got a few vitamin books from the library. I found a few interesting things needed to fight my fatigue. My vitamins weren't strong enough. So, today I decided to take a few extra things and I can already tell a difference in my level of energy. I still haven't been able to find Zipfizz anywhere in my town. I will keep calling around and looking. Well, how about you???? Everything going good for you? Hugs, Heather

WTG ... seeing the Dr.  I am firmly convinced that is a sure fire way to make a committment as well as get help.

The aprozalam is Xanax...it will help you through the anxiety of withdrawal...The anxiety was the worst of it for me.

Drs if worth any salt will really understand and help... I'm just sorry I detoxed w/o telling mine...but she knows know and that be that.

Please keep us updated on your progress.

Great job sweetie, I am so proud of you. That took a lot of courage. You must know that you are serious about quitting or you wouldn't have done this. You would be out looking and asking around for some. So pat yourself on the back. I know you will make the right decision when the time comes. Don't think about it until the time comes. I hope your flight an all goes well. Hopefully I wont hear from you until tom. that way I know you got some rest. IM here for you, Heather
