6 full days and counting

[ultimatebattle]

well, at 7pm eastern time I just finished 6 full days, I feel "ok", nothing like the first 4, still have a little diarhea, dizzyness once in a while, not alot of energy, but its an awesome feeling knowing I made it this far, I have a very addictive personality and I always envisioned this only happening once I hit rock bottom, but thank god I took control of it after taking 25 oxy 10's, cold turkey, I have to give this board alot of credit for helping me through this, im not one to open up to anyone so once again I surprised myself, oh and by the way, I can give you guys one more reason (and a good one) my sex drive and enjoyment of sex has gone way up, plus my wife sees me smiling more and paying more attention to her and the kids that she initiates it, on that not, thanks again and good luck to us all

You will be surprised on the rise in your sex drive once this monkey is off your back. I am going on 60 days clean and my relationship with my wife, kids and family has never been better. It is like we were just married, if you can remember that. I have a lot f lost time to make up for. Congratulations on the day six. I know to a non addict it means nothing, But to us its like climbing Mt, everest, Keep up the hard work and remember better things will come your way. Life is too short to keep us in that downward sprial we call addiction. Make your ammends and keep moving forward, You can do it, we are all here cheering you on. I just read your post to my wife " she said it sounds like I wrote it" Dont ever estimate on how our words effect other lifes, Live life to the fullest and enjoy each and every minute. Cause belive it or not your words hav impacted my life.
Thanks keep up the great work and keep climbing soon you wll be on the top,
Darrin

Hey congrats on 6 days...you should be threw the physical part now just be ready for the mental part to kick in...I always say this is 1/3 physical and 2/3 mental so prepare for another fight...it would be a good idea to hook up with some aftercare now both N/A and A/A are free and there programs work if you work them...theres also addiction therapist as well as substance abuse conslors...find something thats a good fit and get pluged in
you will really find it helpful the next few weeks can be challenging good luck and God bless.....Gnarly
