Day 8 off hydrocodone

Today is kind of a rough day b/c one of my animals got sick last night & I'm very concerned. These are the times when I would rely on the hydrocodone the most. . . for sleep & relaxation. I was also having some craving yesterday anyway. But, I've seen a post from GAGuy regarding being addicted for years. . . not going to be "over" it in a week. I'm hoping things will get better today but that will depend on my animal, not necessarily my w/d symptoms. All in all, I think I'm doing pretty well w/any w/d symptoms. So, if your one of "me". . . . KEEP GOING!!! You will have good/bad days but you can make it!!!
