Today is 23 days C/T and am just starting to feel normal again but remember everyone is different. We did not become addicts over night so it will take time to for our bodies to get back the way it was. You are doing great and just remember life is so much better not chasing that stupid pill!

Just wanted to say hi jesrenay. I too was taking about 15 Norco's a day so I know how you are feeling. You are doing a great job. The first week is pretty rough but it does get better. I know you don't feel like yourself but you are really not yourself on the pills you just don't see that while you are using. Once you get some time between you and your addiction you will start to see your old self come back and will be amazed at home much of yourself was really lost during your addiction. Stick with it because it is so worth it and you are worth it!!!

sounds like you are doing better since you kept dinner down and you have a sense of humor about still being alive.  I hope today is a good day for you.  When do you have to work again?

Hi Jesrenay ~

I was in the same situation and today - my 4th day - I am feeling better. Don't give up!!

Drink Gatorade if you can keep it down - & keep taking the hot baths.

Sorry to hear you aren't feeling well.  Is there someone that can take care of you?  I am sure you are the one to take care of everyone else when they aren't feeling well.  Now it is your turn for someone to take care of you, regardless of the reason you are feeling badly.

Glad you kept down the chicken noodle soup.  What about crackers?  My children love the combination when they are sick.

Are you staying hydrated?

How are you?  You haven't been on here today.   My son gets bored some times too.  It is better for you to get off the pills - it is ok if your son has a couple days of boredom.   Having his mother off of pills is much more important.  

I know you are feeling miserable but I promise you it will get better and it will be worth it.

Please try to come on-line more often.  I worry when you aren't on all day.

No, the you is hiding being the addiction.  Your body is resetting itself and is not happy.  This part of the withdrawals is what separates us into give up and keep going.  Keep going!

CONGRATS on taking your life back! YOU ARE DOING GREAT! DON'T GIVE UP!  The good news is that
Wd's DON'T last forever & you will begin feeling better in no time. This is a good opportunity for you and your child to snuggle in bed and watch movies together or something! Kids are very forgiving and I PROMISE you WILL be on the bright side of this SOON!
Brace yourself for a nasty case of the "flu" and ride it out! OFTEN
times the FEAR of WD's is worse than the actual experience!
YOU CAN do this & YOU are NOT alone!
I'm rooting for you! Remember, One hour, one day, one choice at a time!
I'm here if you need to talk!

I am really swamped today but I will be back at 4 pm EST to see how your day is going and make sure you are doing ok.  Didn't want you to think that I forgot about you.  I am just a busy bee today.

hahaha when you said at the track I don't know why I thought race track.  Sorry, I guess it would have made more sense if you said you went for a run.  That is great that you did that.  Wow
