Good morning all.  It is nice to see things have calmed down a bit.  To all those detoxing, hang in there.  You are fighting the good fight.  Well, you know the drill.  Let 'er rip!

He took your kids over some morphine pills and youdon't know where they are? Thats crazy, I bet you miss them like crazy. You must be an incredible woman to find the courage to get yourself better after that. **** I think I would use it as a excuse to go down hill.  Now you also reach out to others, what a life change.  Did you start all this smoking pot in jr high, I did.  I hate my in-laws too, I was using crank a couple of years ago and I got really spun used for 5 months straight and I told on myself and my husband and his family freaked they were so ashamed, his sister and her family won't visit us to this day, my 3 kids supported me they are 15 16 and 20 but they all think I'm still clean and I of the crank just taking the ever popular white right and uptight pills. Do you get what I'm saying, if they are from a doctor they must be okay. Right?  Republican Drugs.. Love peagravel

I like what you had to say...very honest. I can definitely relate to what you said about wondering where you next script is going to come from, running out, etc.  What a major waste of time...I never realized how much time I spent trying to get more meds.  It's the extra time I have on my hands that is the problem now.  I seemed to be able to find the time to be destructive, but I can't find the time to be good to myself...doesn't say much does it?

The whole time I have used Hydro's, I always thought, "Okay, this is going on and that is going on, so a pill makes me actually feel good for a few hours a day, so f#$%%^ what?  Why is that such a problem?"  But you already know, because you said "I know what I have to do."  Now, keep in mind that I am just now in my tapering stage, so I may not be one to talk, but you know what I look forward to?  This is what is keeping me going....I look forward to getting up and not thinking about whether I have the pills, how many do I have, when am I going to run out, what will I do then?  I look forward to being myself, whether that is good or bad, I look forward to working out again (haven't done that since I started using these over a year ago).  Anyway, I guess what I am saying is that even though things are rough right now, things are always going to be rough.  Try to look forward to the GOOD parts of being clean, not the scary parts......Take care....Like you said, you know what you have to do and so do I, let's just not give ourselves any other option right now.....
