only on day 2

this is only my second day in and its harder than i thought it would be.mostly the cold depression .  i dont know if i can go to  work like this .i am a hairdresser and working with the public can be hard anyway.i am trying to stay a bit busy and trying to think positive. i think its the little bit of methadsone that was at the end of my taper that makes this suck more and the more i read about it the scarier it is.i have 2 good kids 19 and 20 that i need to do this for. my husband gave me the meds i think to hook me so i wouldnt leave and i feel so stupid. please pray for me all as He is the one who can see me thru this!    thanks

Day 2 and 3 were the worst for me...just try to hang in there. I have been clean 47 days..And It is like a new me..and second chance..I promise it does get better 1 day at a time..after the 1st wk..I was still tired and felt weak...but the fog started lifting...I could not believe how dulled my world had been..I thought I was doing good..on the pills..Looking back..OMG I was a zombie...just going thru the motion of living life. I have 2 sons and 5 grands. I hate that I ever took the 1st pill...I pray for you my friend..Stay Strong..the wds are awful, but it is soooo worth it.

Consider prayers sent up... Day 2 is hard for anybody going through wd.. You kids are a good reason to do this.. I have sons your kids age and stoned I was not connecting with them.. clean it is like I have new children.. I hear their laughter their excitement and their worries.. stoned I thought I heard but they can see our eyes and emotions glazed over.. as they told me.. a complete turn off.. they miss us.. I'm very sorry it was your husband who introduce this.. you are stronger though and will see this through.. day 2 is hard and 3 and 4 are going to be harder.. stay strong and wrestle your life back from addiction.. reach out for support.. You can do this.. lesa
