never forget the chilsl, the sweats, the sh#ts. I am into my 4thday and i thank all of u who post here and share your stories. Iknow relapse is part of this crazy addiction but using has ay to many consequences. If i used right this moment i would have to go thru w/d eventually  i cant just use once, that is what makes me an addict.  ...I havequit drinking, smoking, and yes crack!!!  sitting here with my post graduate degree admitting i was a crack head... Wow we are human beings not human doings so it doesnt matter if i have my doctorate its not what u do its  who u are i am human and make mistakes. we pray for one another and hope we live thru this addiction.

it will get better, unless u convince urself that it will not...minds play a big part of this.
Exercise releases endorphins that our brain needs when we stop pills/  If u feel bad, take a brisk walk or hit the gym ven if u dont feel up to it.  Staying busy helps too..clean out a closet or read a book...hit a meeting.

hang in there...if u feel yucky at work, just say u have a mild bug or a headache..u willmake it thru the day and u will feel better every day

i love you. im going to get some gatorade in a min. do u think tonight will be better for me? i hope so. i was almost screaming in pain (actually i was screaming). i kept shaking it felt like i was about to have a seizure. my wife was freaking out and she told me to get some pills because i was scaring her. i called the guy but he wanted me to drive and i was in no shape to. if i thought i could have made it i would have been there in a heartbeat.

Yes this is going to get better.  Going to work will actually help as moving around is good for you.  Try and have positive thoughts.  You are doing great!!!  Are you drinking plenty of fluids?  Try some Gatorade.  Stay away from caffeine right now.  Let us know how you are doing tonight.         sara
