26 days off suboxone!

It's been a week or so since I've last posted. I've been really busy but I just wanted to share with all of you that I've been off subs for 26 days!! There are moments where it's really intense. I guess all of these feelings and things that were masked my by subs are coming through. Everything is really clear and super vivid but all in a good way. I'm sleeping well 6-8 hrs. I barely wake up in the middle of the night anymore! My energy is slowly but surely coming back. I can tell bc I'm able to work a little better. I'm super stoked. Thanks for all the support yall have given me. My after care my docs and I set up is working really well so far too!

Yesss! Thanks guys!! I'm surprised my sleep is as good as it is. I do have some crappy nights but not many! I have been using some sort of drug since I was 13 and I'm now 29. People ask me if I feel normal. I tell them I don't know with the hell normal is but I feel really good! I'm so thankful I have an amazing team of docs that have  worked withh me these past 5 yrs. a few of them gave me their numbers if I ever need anything. They seriously helped me more than I can explain! They are also recovering addicts so they've been there and done that. They're real people that treat you like a real person not just some junkie off the streets. It's like your not a job to them. They really want to help the people that want to be helped.

Yahooooooo!!!! I am SO Happy for You and You can tell by this post you are feeling way better..Yes, those Emotions we feel for awhile when we stop the meds was something new for me. I am just glad that one is over too. It did take me a couple of yrs for the brain to fire up, but I also went c/t from 3 meds I was using for over 12 yrs and then all the shiit I did growing up.

Very Proud for YOU and just keep on stepping forward. You should give yourself a BIG pat on the back.

Bless
