99 Days Clean - Feel Like Using?

I am clean 99 days off opiates and alcohol. Today has been an extremely difficult day for getting cravings. I did attend an NA meeting tonight and felt better while I was there. Now  that I am back home the urges are coming again where I want to go out and purchase some alcohol since I no longer have any connections for oxy.

Any feedback would be much appreciated!

Congrats 100 days,  I wish I was on 100 days, I am still struggling to make it past day 1 and through the W/D, It helps to see people making it.  I have not had any treatment of any kind and am trying to do this C/T, wish me luck :(

You are doing great - 100 days. I've heard that "anniversary" dates can be challenging but they pass very quickly. You've passed the 90 day mark. The "anniversary" dates for the first year are 90 days, 6 mos, 9 mos and one year. You did it. Don't give up the fight. It is not worth the loss. Been there, done that, didn't buy the T-shirt. Too much shame for me.

Great job ~ El

Congrats on your 100 days clean..  As of today, I have 162 days.  I know what you mean about those cravings.  They can be so rough at times.  But you can always get thru it.  We have way too much to lose by acting on them now. Can you imagine having to start over ?  I can't.  I think about that every time I have a craving from hell and it keeps me clean .  If I have to not use minute by minute, by hour, or by the day,  I wont give in and you shouldn't either.  Way to Go,  Keep Going,  You are doing a great job.  Believe in yourself, and you can make it thru anything.

DON'T DO IT......I know you can't,you know you can't..Your addictive brain is trying to play tricks on you,don't let it win.Don't start rationalizing why it would be okay,because you know it's not.You've got some descent clean time under your belt,don't forget how far you've come.Remember where you were 99 days ago,you don't want to go back there and you don't want to have to go through that all over again.Stay here and keep talking with us.It's a craving and it will pass.Keep posting,we're here for you.
