Day 9 and counting.. Up,up and away!!! Yay me

[Ldytaz]

Well, here I sit trying to get the energy to start my day. Husband has 1 more day shift then maybe we will get back to " our" normal.. I have loved having him here at night but, but didn't want to get used to it. I drive him( no lic.due to past drinking and driving) and to change that up is hard right now. So Sat night we will be back to our schedule. My Son totaled his car so he is here right now and with my husband working nights we can let him take car days. Right now I am the taxi for both. The shakes, feeling sick exhausted taxi.. There u have my symptoms for today. Oh and still feel like I have a bad flu. My stomach is a mess. I do take everything on Thomas recipe and drink lots of water. I know one day at a time.. I'm still ok with it though.. Good morning all. Have a blessed day and stay clean for another... We got this wupped

hey girl good to see you good to see you clean...your doing great a lot of the symptoms will dye off in a few days the phyical part for methadone is around 10 days to 2 weeks so hang in there just know you are winning this thing one day at a time sleep will slowly return as for the energy crash I recamend the ''whey protein shakes'' you can get a 2lb can up at walmart for 15 bucks it is loaded with amino acids for the brain and the protein will help with the energy crash just remember  ''baby steps'' keep posting for support and know after all is said and done it is so worth it..................Gnarly

Rocket Man.. Im not he man the thought I was.. Its gonna take a long long time..It brought me back 30 years..It has been a long long time.. almost 54 and been doing this on and off for 30 years.. I get sad, then I think of what I have accomplished.I raised 3 beautiful boys,raising my 8 yr old grandson. Yes I did a lot of this 17 years ago on my doc.. But I did it.Me an addict,me with all my mental and physical problems..ME ME ME...I came a long way.Now I find myself here,with all u.What would I have done the last 9 days without u all.The posts and all the incouragement.U have put your troubles aside on here and listened to so many who need u.I want to be there with u.If anything I am going thru or have done can help just one,I will be there.. Thank u all,Luvs

Hard to believe right now hon, but staying mobile is your friend.  It makes time go so much faster. Just take lots of little sit breaks or rest stops. Sometimes that's all you need before you realize, you're up and going again.
Prayers out chicky, get your inner warrior involved.  :o}

One thing at a time. You are doing awesome and this does get easier each day. I don't mean you don't have to work for it every day but it just gets easier. Fight for it.

[Ldytaz]

Thanks spider9. Drank me a protein drink and trying to get started here. Gotta go make hubby lunch and get him to work. Then bk to take Son to work.lol it doesn't end. Normal things,normal ppl do everyday are such a challange for us. As addicts we appreciate every minute of everyday we struggle to stay clean. I am on my way as we r all. Thanks to this site I have somewhere to go and not feel alone. Luvs
