3 weeks today!!!

Thanks guys for helping me get through these 3 weeks! Last night I went to bed in a up mood but this morning couldn't even pray. That's a big time bummer for me. Had all the crazy thoughts also. I'm going to quit taking b-6 I think it makes me smell. Don't handle that either. I'm going to health food store and get some melatonin extended release. Going to cut back to 5mg of ambien and add the melatonin. I'll be glad when I can say I did  instead of "I'm going to", God Bless all of you. Hang tough

Gm. I have not been able to write anything cause this is day two of my weaning down from the percocets. Everyone told me not to take subs. I'm so sick and struggling for energy. I feel like pulling my hair out. I lost my new job that I started in Sept. I was told I floss my teeth leaving out the break room . I wore sneakers with a dress. New ones and was told not to do that anymore. Stated the I used the bathroom chroniily and was late repeated. Well I'm very disappointed but I was leaving out to go to the bathroom to floss when a heavy set lady block the door way. I was late once due to the severe rain. Everyone was late that day . I held my water so long it hurt at the end of the day when I finally would go . Long story short I blame myself for taking the medicine. I don't know what's going on. I'm so glad to become coming off even though I'm sick. I have been taking the vitamins and trying to rest and heal from my surgery. I want my life back and better than ever . I will never use these things again .

I read psalm 31. I couldn't even pray today but now I'm a lot better. Thanks for psalm. I need to read all of them. You hang in there, there is no such thing as JUST 8 days. Each day you are clean just like the rest of us!! It just gets easier with each day is all. How could we fail with so many praying for us? God Bless you!!

Hope the dental went well. You shouldn't have any problems if you don't have a dry socket. I went to walmart and used the scooter to do some shopping while hubby had eyes checked. It took him 1 1/2 hour to get it done!!!!!! I thought it was going to kill me. I got home and took 1 Excedrin. I couldn't believe how much better that worked than 3 advil,  Your right we are going to have up and down days for awhile longer, I guess it makes the up days that much better. At least I'm more thankful for them. Hang in there and let me know how it went. God Bless you

Congratulations, that is a huge accomplishment!!!! I am only on day 8 but also have those morning moods. while in day 3 or 4 I opened the bible...trust me that is not a decadal occurrence and it opened to Psalm 31 which is Prayer in Distress and Thanksgiving... I was shocked and have been praying it every night. I am not sure what religion you are but this Psalm Rocks!!! Keep going you are doing AWESOME.

Congratulations Tooter!  So proud of you.  I'm a week behind you.  I think we all have to accept we will have good days and bad days; it's just part of life
I want to say the same thing about the health food store- I need to get B supplements and the L-Tyrosine.  I've been too exhausted after work to go.  
We are all hanging tough together; I think it's amazing!!

Hey Tooter!! Congratulations on three weeks clean!! We are neck and neck girl! I am also waking up in a mood, and when it's time to go to sleep too. I just take Tylenol Pm's. But they work for me. (Thank God) I love to pray that NA prayer in the am. Rosy has it on her page. I have also been experiencing an acute sense of smell for some reason. I light candles all over my apt. I also am working myself into another tizzy because I have to go to the dentist today. I think I will need an extraction, with no pain meds. Only Motrin I guess. So, of course, I've blown it out of proportion and feel like I'm going to have a nervous breakdown. Breathe.....just breathe. Damn this ***** doesn't it??? lol..God Bless you also Tooter, he will ya know!
