HELLO.....Day 34 is here...... at least my mind is on other things than pills. I still have no desire to want them at all, I thank god for his mercy & grace. Still fighting with the low energy, but overall, I am starting to feel better. I totally understand when people on here speak on how each time we quit, & detox, it gets worst & harder to come off. The total damage it does to our entire body, & system, mainly our brains,....it is brutal. This time around, I seriously was afraid that I had permanently damaged my brain...I thought it would never heal, and be normal again. That was & is still very very scary. I felt like I may needed to check myself in to a mental hospital....then after thinking about it...I got even more scared, thinking of the meds they would give me in there. So I decided to just keep praying & waiting on god to deliver me. I know I am not 100%, but I am working on healing my whole self inside out. Church recovery groups, meetings, reading..& treating myself with total care. It has to get better, I am moving and reaching forward, I hope everyone else is as well. If your knew here, please stay, you will get knowledge on how to combat this disease.
Hey Girl....well it is good to see the memory is fresh in your mind of how bad things got near the end and is something you dont want to forget EVER!!!! it sounds like you have done this several times b/4 but recovery is a life long process your disease is always ready to pounce on you in weakness like Sara always says keep your guard up how is your church based recovery progam going??? I guess my question is 2 parts...do you think it is enough and do they address the healing of addiction behaviors???....some do some dont if you find it is not enough N/A is out there it is also a spiritual progam and like you I believe Jesus is my higher power... anyway keep posting and it will help your recovery to start to post to others......we cant keep it unless we give it away....anyway post back when you find the time im interested in your church base recovery.........

Just wanted to stop by and say Hi~
Congrats on day 32, your post was so positive, it brings a smile to my face to read post like this.
God Bless
I'm not jumping up and down either yet, but I feel better than I did yesterday. I think my bronchitis is finally starting to go away. Which is great. I'm not sure what you took your pills for, but My back is killing me really really bad today, I have some back issues and endometriosis, which is why I started taking Norcos, and the pain is still very real, and it ***** today. I took some ibuprofen with no avail haha. But I guess it's better than being sucked back into the pain pill cycle, which is horrible.
Good, I'm glad that you are also getting better. We are close in clean time so it's nice to see another's progress as well. As soon as I get over my bronchitis, I think I will feel much better. I felt great until I got this, then everything just plummetted. I worked all day yesterday and then went home and cleaned my entire house and did laundry, and I think I over did it a little because I'm exhausted today. I'm also glad that I quit. I don't have any desire for them either, except when I get cramps from endomentriosis, which I feel coming. It kind of ***** because that pain is still very real, but I will get by fine with out it. I will just have to find something else that works for me that is NON ADDICTIVE, which is hard, because everything is addictive.
Good job! I'm on day 23, and have bronchitis and just feel like crap with no energy and some depression. I think I might feel a little better today. The hardest part for me is still in the morning, but once I get going at work, I feel better. I don't even think about the pills really anymore at all. I'm glad that you are feeling better. Is your head/brain feeling any better at all? Mine still feels a little "weird" but is slowly getting back to normal.
Congrats on 31 days!! You are doing awesome!

Awesome!!! Congrats and keep up the good work. 28 days is amazing!
Hey there- it would be better if you add your comments and questions to THIS thread; it makes it easier for everyone to follow you.
You sound good. Once you hit the track again your energy will increase. Also, time is the answer along with a proper amount of sleep. One month is great though! You've got this.
