[annibelle48]

Thanks to all of you for helping me thru the past 5 days... I'm headed to a detox facility.... Someone finally listened. I feel so close to you all from the past few days. Now I'm tearing up... Will you please say a prayer for me? I'll be out of touch for a while. I'll update you when I get out. Thanks sooooo much

Hello all!!! I'm back from rehab... They did not give suboxone thank God. I learned so much about this horrible thing that is out addiction. The combination of the opiate and the benzodiazepines was pretty dangerous I guess... It was a horrible thing, but I did it!! I prayed before I went in "God, I know you made the earth and I know I have real problems but I wish I could have one day with no pain." I learned that both the opiate and the Ativan cause muscle spasms and pain. The pain med reroutes the pain receptors in our brain. Well, for the past week I can honestly say I do not have any significant pain. I see better, I smell better, I feel things again. It's amazing, I'd have never believed it was possible. I feel better and better every day. I want to thank all of you for pointing me in the right direction and for all your help and encouragement and words of wisdom. I am eternally grateful for you all and I pray I can be of help to someone in need like you were to me. I love you all

LOL glad you liked that Evan !     and Annibelle they will most likely have a lab time that you can get on the computer and log in and tell us how it's going.

How courageous! You are going to be in great hands!  Yes, don't let them put you on suboxone! You've made it this far! Big hugs!!!!!!!!

[ricart70]

Oh and don't let them put you on suboxone . You already have 5 days ;))  that is huge

[ricart70]

I think this will be a great experience for you friend!!   I think everyone needs to go to rehab at least once (even people who aren't addicted to drugs LOL)
You will do great there and when you get out you will be armed with the tools to stay clean if you want to.  Best wishes and let us know how it went ;)))

[VICourageous]

OH!!!! I am so happy for YOU..This will be good since you already have 5 days in, you will feel better then most. And the good part is that You will be learning so much in there about this Disease and You should be able to focus on this and yourself. Shoot I have almost a Year and I would not mind going with you. Keep us updated when you can..Most will let you call after 10days But they will not give you your phone back until almost the last week. They try to keep you focused on Yourself with no out side interruptions.
Take Comfortable Clothes..Maybe put some money on a Card. If you want to know more on this just ask..OK?
