Relapsed for 2 1/2 days-Fioricet

don't know why I did it, but ordered some Fioricet online (90). Came Tuesday. I was feeling so good before it came, no migraines, sleeping great, in good mood but did it anyway. I immediately threw away 43, had some Tues, Wed, and today and just thew out the rest (21). My head is hurting a little and  I felt terrible on it. I think this is it- done, done, done. I am glad I can see the difference between how great I was feeling compared to how I feel now (and the other days). Not worth it. Only telling here for some support and so I can read later how stupid I was and it it no good. Might get a migraine tonight but am prepared. Didn't even flinch throwing them away. Relieved. What do you all think? I'm embarrassed I even did something so stupid after 15-16 days  with nothing.....

I did tell my therapist and will see him Monday. I've been running every day, vitamins, etc. The minute I ordered I knew it was a mistake. I'll keep reading and posting if I feel weak/vulnerable but I DO feel finished with this. I'm just glad that I threw so many away  and did not waste this whole week on using. Thanks for the advice. I can see it's the behavior rather than a physical craving. Can't wait to go to bed and start a new fresh day.

The second you sat down to order it, you relapsed. Addiction is not about the pills as much as it is about the behaviour. I think I told you to hook up with some kind of recovery care; this is the reason why...

You'd feel like total crap if you did this after being clean for 5 months, which is what I did, then I listened to my friends here...so please go to some meetings, talk with your family or doctor, get something going for yourself, okay?   It will work!

No-there is just a website but I truly feel  done. I almost threw the whole batch out, but was too weak. Getting this head pain is a real reminder of how awful is it for me. took 1/2 half an imitrix tab and hope I don't have to do a shot later. My life is too busy for this ridiculous stuff.I feel like this is it for 2012 and want to keep it out of my life for 2013+. thanks for the encouragement! And I am much happier without it. was just feeling it......

I have relapsed several times.  First time on day 10 and the second on day 13, plus lots of times after 2, 3 days etc.
Hopefully you learned from it and know that you can be happy and feel good without the pills.
You do have easy access to them by the sounds of it.  Is there any way you can cancel your option to order them online??  I really don't know how that works as I have never done it.  I would have if I could have. lol
Good for you for throwing them out and posting again.
Hopefully you don't get a migraine.
