Hey NorcB, I am doing great today I am on day 25. I have been on a business trip this week so I haven't been on the forum much and I am doing this from blackberry. I know how you feel with the waves of energy or the lack of it. For me it comes and goes but it has been getting better everyday so hang in there you are doing great for day 6 and I am proud of ya. The sneezing thing goes away too it just takes time. So keep on keepin on. ---quitin

Still sneezing quit! Not fun stuff. How are you doing?
Thanks Gnarly - I know aftercare is important, and yes i need to keep hearing that so bring on 1002 times!
Well, the thank you still stands to everyone, but Man Oh Man, when will this roller coaster end! I know I'm working my way thru, but WOW, where did the energy go from yesterday. I'll keep plugging away.
Hey dude congrads on getting clean and on 6 days your over the hump now im happy for you ....you have fought a good fight and will be paid back handsomely for it...now comes the battle of the mind this can be just as challenging hang in there and did we mention aftercare at least 1000 times....lol 1001 get some aftercare so your not back here in 3 mo
good luck and God bless....Gnarly....btw your welcome to stay as long as you like I ment your not back with a relapse
Congrats on day 6 and yes it is great to wake up in the morning and not fumble around to find the pill bottle. I am glad to hear that you are feeling better and now know you will make it. Do you still have the sneezing thing going on? I am proud of you for making another success story on this forum. Take care and keep on keepin on.
Oh my goodness, the snappy, irritable feeling was really there for me! I still feel a little irritated today... I know it will pass. And your coworkers will just have to deal with it! Have a fantastic day! I am so proud of you, and everyone else on here!
Thanks Tram - It certainly is nice to wake up and not reach for that bottle before I even open my eyes.
Congrats! You've turned a big corner. Now just find a way to NEVER go back through this again! Life is too precious to rely on pills to make us happy and content!
I'm very proud of you!
Thanks Sara! I agree aftercare is important. The first test will be when something stresses me out, or I just feel overwhelmed again. So, i know I need to find a group to talk to in person. You have all been wonderful, but I know that personal attention can be key for most. I'll keep you posted on my next steps.
Matt and overit2day - Thanks so much. I've followed you guys story from the beginning. It's so true when you have others going thru the same thing it really does help you stay motivated. I've tried staying positive and just kept reading others to inspire me as well. Hopefully I can return the favor to others on here. The only prob I have today is I'm a little snappy with my co-workers, is this normal? LOL If that's all, its far worse on everyone else than me. I could use a break anyhow...teehee
Congrats on 6 days clean!! You are doing great!! The battle is just beginning mentally now so put some type of aftercare into place and continue on your road to recovery~~sara
SO PROUD OF YOU!!!! Glad you are starting to feel better. Congrats on making it to day 6. That is awesome.
Matt
Yay! I am so proud of you! Yesterday was my day 6, and I know I felt so much better than the day before. Today is another new day... Things are beginning to look better. I have been following your posts, and I am so proud of you. Tomorrow will be one week FREE from those terrible little things that used to control our lives. Keep posting because it inspires me, and others! Congrats on your huge accomplishment!
Congratulations -- I am so envious of you! What a HUGE accomplishment. I cannot wait to be where you are at!
