Almost through with day 3. It will be 72 hours in a hour. The physical symptoms seem to have much less intensity today. The mental part is screaming at me to make up for the slack. Hardly any chills,nausea today, although a major drain on the energy scale and runny nose,sneezing.Had to force the food down when I did eat.I drank over a quart of water after my coffee, since this a.m. I have to try to distract myself as much as possible to not dwell on the mental anguish. Tomorrow will be a little better right? thanks
Hello all. I actually slept good last night. Took half a xanax hot bath, bunch of chocolate. Monday eve I tried Advil pm and had the RLS. Stomach feels better so far,sipping the coffee.Yesterday I tried a dose of contact sinus allergy to help the runny nose. I believe that contains the acetaminophen i was getting from the norco. Lots of sneezing late yesterday afternoon,eve.I dont feel any attraction toward alcohol right now. Just thinkin about those nasty yellow pills.
By aftercare help are you implying Na and AA, or are there other routes. Thanks
Hi and welcome to the forum........
I am happy you want to get your life back but it takes more than just stopping the pills. After the wd's comes the hard part. You have been using for quite awhile and drinking on top of it. This is a life changing process. Katrina explained it very well in her post. We want to see you get better and live a healthy happy life drug and alcohol free. What are you taking for sleep? Let us know how you are doing~~~~~sara
I'm not trying to give you a hard time... Katrina decoded your post just fine!!
Best of luck!
Come on...you're BSing me! How long will the drug stay in your system is the same thing as how long do I have to be without opiates in my system before the urine tests clean.
Sorry for the confusion. It is difficult to think straight and type what i meant. I read the forum rules and saw a person cannot ask how to pass a urine test.I was trying to find out how long the traces would stay in my system. I was not looking for a trick or additive to pass the test.I just canceled a Wednesday evening with my girlfriend as i realize day 3 tomorrow will be bad.I will see her Fri night and am confident things will be better I have been able to work outside a few hours a day as it helps distract me from the the craving Also from reading the other posts I am lucky so far to be able to eat and drink some small amounts and keep it in.Now it is time for a bath, some sleeping helpers,read my book.. I am feeling better as I have made it 2 days clean. Thanks
i would be careful on throwing urself into a job so soon. the mental withdraw takes a while. i throw my self into a job thinking just working would help everything and i ended up quiting because i just couldnt be there without thinking about it. if u truely think u r ready more power to u but hun dont throw urself into something ur not ready for.
Okay. You're not trying to pass a drug test? Then I'm missing something here.
What does: "Will I pass my urine test if I stay clean"? Mean?? If your clean,your urine will be clean. Right?
Help me here...
Also,you're not healthy at all. Don't underestimate addiction. It's been 6 years...but i know what you meant.
As long as you are getting clean, and staying clean for YOURSELF will be able to do this. It isn't easy, I am not going to lie and say its easy! Its a very long hard road to active recovery! Just make sure you have some aftercare lined up. This is so necessary to maintain sobriety. Just doing this on your own is called "white knuckling" and it very rarely works to depend on your will power alone. Addiction can bring the strongest person in the world right down to your knees. You MUST utilize and work your aftercare programs! Hang in there, and before you know it, you will be living a completly drug free life, and asking why didn't I do this sooner! You can do this!
Hello vicki, Yes I will stay clean because there will be random testing and it is past time to get my life back under control. I was not asking how to pass rather a time line for cleaning.I have found out over the internet that my test should be o.k. if I continue to be good.I am pretty healthy except for the drug addiction.I live in a beautiful city, very special family and girlfriend. I have way to much to loose going back to that other me.Am really looking forward to being able to think clearly,remembering details, and not craving drugs. Thanks
I have to ask you if you're planning on staying clean after you take this test... That's what the forum is all about: beating addiction. We're not able to give you information on how to pass a drug test.
Good luck-
