Wow, I can tell you're feeling really proud and empowered, awesome job! I am new to this forum and in the beginning stages of a taper, it's so great to see people who have made it through to later stages in the process and are feeling the benefits that they worked so hard for. Congrats!!!!
Great job on your clean time. You have a such a wonderful, positive attitude. Keep that up, keep setting goals, and surrounding yourself with support. There will be hard days, that's a given, but if you have a safety net in place, you will make it through. Take care and never give up!
How long wher you on the sub?? your sound good sub is a funny drug we have seen people come off it with little or no problems and others who it was like pulling teeth you never know witch one your going to be till you come off it anyways cudos to you time to put some form of after care in place the addict in you is still alive and well. keep us up to date on how this goes we need more positive sub experiences posted............................Gnarly.........................................
I started the subs last Wednesday, only taking a 2mg piece of a strip. Thursday, I took another 2mg piece. Same with Friday and Saturday. Sunday, I took 1mg, Monday, 32 hours after taking my last 1mg dose, I took my last 1mg dose. It has now been 72 hours since my last dose of sub. Thanks everyone!! :)
Hi Bella, well done on your clean, keep it
up : )
Great job. Congrats & GOD. I'm on day 21 off methadone. Starting to feel better. I'd have a really good day then the next this disease would come like a flood. Catch me off guard. I've just kept posting & going to meetings.
I have to go to my meetings. They are great.
Have an aftercare plan. This disease lye's in wait at the most unexpected times.
Great job!!!
That's the one thing that scares the living daylights out of me. My husband is also prescribed the same medications that I was on and am addicted to. It's not fair to ask him to quit because *I* screwed up. But on the plus side, he's been taking them around me and I've even had them in my hand, while going through detox AND being in pain and I still chose not to take them. The ache for that relief will always be there but the need for my life back will hopefully always be greater. Working on putting together an aftercare plan as we speak.
I live with an alcoholic. He drinks every night. If I drink I use. I get it.
Terrifying. I post people on here & in my meetings get me through. There's a women's meeting at my group 1/2 live with alcoholic addicts & make it.
We're going to do that to.
You go girl!!!
