Not sure of the exact number but 9 months 2 days.....And Vicki, day 0 for cigs for me too...just can't seem to let them go.....
49 1/2 hrs in and this post is so motivating! I can't wait to post some good numbers on here! Thanks for everyone's great support during the worst and lowest times for those trying to change for the better. This forum saves lives. <3
I just reached the 72 hour point!! Yeah!! It's amazing how much better I feel already today. Hang in there. The good thing is tomorrow is going to be even better :). I just feel so free, free of the lies, deception,

OMG this just made me so excited to be done! Congrats to all of you!!! I'm day 4 of Sub w/d and I'm pretty sucky feeling. It might be my imagination but today seems like 2% better than yesterday! It's very minimal but maybe it's starting to get better slowly. I've been clean of opiates 2,118 days!!! But ur been on Suboxone since then. Except a short time during my pregnancy. Doc wanted me to stay on Subs while I was pregnant! I said Hell No! I declined all pain meds for my delivery. I caved and took some leftover Suboxone 3 days after I gave birth bc the pain was unbearable. I regret that decision to no end. I didn't tell a single soul I went back to taking Subs. I feel like a failure. BUT life will get better. I'm so excited and nervous too to remember the girl I was before I started any of this!! 11 years ago! Sorry to rant so long. Keep up the great work everyone. I'm so happy I found this place since I'm secretly w/d-ing with no support.
406 days....one year, one month and one week~
A year ago today...I had not found you yet, MedHelpers...I was 55 days "in" before that happened. Fortunately, I kept a notebook by my bed and journaled everyday until I found you to talk to. I had been bedridden for many months.
So today, I decided b4 I posted my clean time...to look back and see just exactly what I wrote a year ago on August 2, 2012...to see where I was at. Here are a few of the things I wrote....
"Back hurts..kidneys hurt..but urinating good. Some appetite...no tremors anymore (so far today) only a few jerking of joints...ears are better but not "normal". Have had dizzy spells anytime upon arising for over a week now..Finally took b/p VERY LOW..80/60..stays constant just about all day."
There are many more comments I won't bore you with...but as I read back today and realized this was just "last Summer"....I cried....I just cried.
I wasn't even able to drive yet....couldn't even shower very often...SO sick....so atrophied.
Today, I cry with a grateful heart~
For ANYONE out there.....YOU CAN DO this...and you can be FREE~
Love to you all~
