Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!

I am gonna look at yesterday like it was a reality check! Never let my gaurd down. Even after 9 months!! I am so proud of myself that i fought. And i fought with all i have. I didnt think after all this time a craving could be so bad. I pray it never happens again but i know in reality not to be so silly. That is why addiction is a lifetime fight. I have known that but am starting to realize this even more. I think i get a little smarter every day when it comes to my addiction. I dont know...maybe not. LOL!!  Maybe its things i have always know but just never experienced. I am so lucky to have all my friends here. I would have never made it threw yesterday without all the help and support and kind words i received from each and everyone one of you. So....from the bottom of my heart......thank you all. From the moment i opened my eyes yesterday morning i knew that the day was going to be a fight. Last night as I layed down and closed my eyes i cried knowing i made it over yet another bump in the road. I am proud that the pill demon that staked out on my shoulder all day finally gave up and left me.
So i am going to put my ticker on my comment here. I am proud! Proud of myself and proud of all you. We are all learing and growing everyday. For anyone that is new here this post will show you that no matter how bad the craving is it is possible to get threw it and all the wonderful people here will help you do it! So many helped me threw yesterday so please i want you all to know that i am truly thankful from the bottom of my heart to each and everyone of you. I am so happy i didnt cave and i am still clean. What a waste that would have been. So much  time, work and effort that i would have thrown away but i didnt throw it away....i think i grew a little and even learned something.
Love and hugz to you all,
Jen

yours was my very first friend invite when i began posting on here a few weeks ago and you have helped me every inch of the way in this battle!  you continue to be an inspiration to me that after so many months you can still crave that badly and still resist.  i only pray that i can be that strong if i ever come to that test so far down the road (and chances are we all will be tested again and again).  you are amazing!

love,
Kova
