Day 7 a first for me

I am on day 7 and today a had my first craving, but I will not act on this trust me I have came to far for me and my family. Work has been getting better, but I am still tired in the mornings, however I have always been like that so I dont know. I worked out yesterday and did a little cardio, but boy was I exhaausted afterwards. I did force myself to do things around the house, but really all I wanted to do is slouch around. One question say I take 2 or so this weekend and stop, will I start all over and w/d again? Just a question. Either way I am not going to do it. Thanks for everones support.

Congrats on a week clean, that is awesome. Taking 2 might not set you back in w/d's but it will do something even worse. Your addiction will gain so much life and you will have to battle cravings and the mind games. Your so lucky to have only had your first craving now. I craved 24/7 for the first month, I did not want to get out of bed cause my cravings were so bad i was vomitting and sick.

P.S. Titans SUCK, Go BILLLLLLLLLLLLLLS, hahahah. Stay strong man!

Thanks for that queen. I really cant wait to be myself again it just seems like everone has lost touch with me. I hate this because I used to be the life of the party with my family and now I just dont know anymore. My family is big on drinking and I know when I go over to watch football and vistit thats exactly what will be expected of me, but people have told me it could lead me back to my DOC. I think could control myself with drinking, but anyway thanks all for the help and I will saty away from the 2 it was just a question.

Don't even THINK about "taking 2"  It will only set you back to where you DON'T WANT TO BE AGAIN..... You've ALREADY COME THIS FAR.... And, trust me on this one.... it only gets better every day YOU DON'T USE!  I know it's hard but you CAN  & MUST DO IT!  I'm on day 18 clean from Norco 8-10/day x's 3 year for 2 back surgeries and although I'm still not my "old self" again... Everyday I get closer to that!  Hang in there hon... and keep on posting cuz we're all out here for you.

Hey congrats on a week clean!!! I'm not sure why you asked about taking '2" this w/e that's kinda setting yourself up or as they say "making a reservation" but I would think you may feel ok for a small period of time then back to the wd,IF you stopped at 2!! It probably will set you back a bit  9mentally as well)  and it's just dragging the wd out longer than necessary!! Good Luck stay strong and try not to even entertain the thoughts of just 2 , it's the w/e your doing great!!!
