Also - please - I don't want to seem like a hypocrite on this site - as I know many of you are just wanting to be completely off of them. And doing really well at it! I don't want to seem as if I'm rubbing your noses in the fact that I'm still on some meds! PLEASE! I do feel your pain when you are w/ding. And that is what makes me feel like a fake - that I'm not doing the same with you right now. Reading your posts is truly making me stronger and more committed to not abusing or going down a path I don't want!
I medically cannot go off of them completely. Just 14 more days until that can change!
It is just the fact that we will experience some kind of pain. How we manage it - in conjunction with our docs - is the key. I DO NOT want to be popping 10-20mg every day. I don't. I want to be in control.
I know it is a fine line - but I think that is where you have to be in synch with your doc - and thank goodness I will not be around my doc who prescribes them 120 at a time. That will help -
Sorry for the rambling - but I didn't want to upset anyone who is doing really well detoxing! I know it isn't easy - but even in your struggles - you are helping someone else! I know - because you all are helping me so much! Thank you!
HUn!, That was just an awsome post!! I am glad to hear you are doing so well! COngrats to you sweety! But I hate to hear you ar ein pain. I hope that eases for you soon! I am assuming your going to be having some kind of surgery or something? Because you said in 14 days that will all change?
Either way, I am glad to hear you are in control. Isn't it amazing how this forum has helped us so fast?? The support is phenominal and so real and true honesty, I just don't know why it took me so long to find this place!!!
Blessings!
Hey girl -
Thanks for your post. I was TRULY afraid to post this - as I didn't want it to come off the wrong way.
No - I'm the preggo chick - who thought it would be good to detox while pregnant. NOPE! Anyway - I have 14 days until my c-section - which of course will involve meds - but unlike last time - where I LOST control of taking meds - I TRULY feel like I have the power.
I would have NEVER felt that way before reading and sharing with everyone.
SO - as much as I know it is going to suck - I can't wait to get off the meds!!!
Thanks for the response - and I'll be thinking of you and the doc's appt Thurs.!

Ohh ok..that is you. Well I hope all turns out well with Baby and delivery, everything.
Thank you for your thoughts and also while I am at Dr Thursday. I am still sooo scared! I hope he does not send me home to do C/T.
Thanks for your post hun!
