I'm proud of you too! My kids are gone for the week and I'm off for summer break, so I am detoxing and not working. God is giving you the strength to do this! I'm on day 4 and feeling a little better. I'm sending up prayers for you. You CAN do this!

You should be so proud of yourself.  There is no way I could work and detox.  You really want this obviously and you are doing it.  You are a very strong young man.  I am very impressed.

Try not to get overwhelmed by your to do's. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other, and tell yourself, it is now or never. You have gotten over the first 3 days.....EXCELLENT! Before you know it a week will have gone by and you will feel a world better. Sending support and strength your way. Keep on pushing. xx

It gets better every day. I worked every day the first week and even though it was physically tough, I was preoccupied and didn't dwell on the minutes and hours. I work a very physically demanding job so it was good and tough. Just remember it only gets better. Good luck!
