Today we are all here, body and mind. We have a baby growing, a friend who is showing signs of brain activity and pills in lock down. Truely amazing~
Thank you and you are so right~
My belief is that true healing involves pain........
The new me has to learn diff ways to find comfort when in pain......
New ways are hard.......
Not masking pain is hard.......
But God always makes a way.....when there seems to be no way.
Living thru the pain without using will make us all stronger and even better able to "hold each other up" Helping others helps us......
After the pain.......comes clarity... and joys in our life taste that much sweeter!
Blessings to all of you~
The upcoming holidays come with their whole list of problems. memories of those not with us, family gatherings with their dysfunctional interactions, etc. We need to be very cautious during this time.
Wow, powerful words from everyone. It's very difficult time of year period even for the non user. So it's really demanding . I didn't think about detox time, I just said enough. A flighting moment hasn't tempted me, I'm scared to death of those pills, I can't imagine starting all over, day 5 but 3 week of tapering and being ill..... We all know this drill.

Fake scenes of life being good, now we face the good, bad and ugly. Whatever it is, " it's the real deal " .

I use to be an addiction counselor 12 yrs ago, if I go back, I can now relate. Stay strong ! Keep posting, So proud of everyone's words on this post, thank you Sara xox
Thank you. This is the time of year (2 years apart) when both of my parents died. And, this will be the first holiday season in many years that I will be clean. It's like my head has its own podcast dedicated to the healing power of Norco. It never stops. But it does get better.
Thanks again.
