insanity

They say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing time after time and expectng a different result.With that in mind I have decided to go cold turkey again.My last dose will be tommorow evening. This time I have a few things that are different tho.I have started attending a GREAT N/A group that meets 7 days a week right by my home.I will attend 90 meetings in 90 days.I am also going to be MUCH more active in the forum.It is essental for me to have a support systems and I have learned that from  the times I have failed.This is my thrid try so I hope the thrid times a charm.I will also be following the thomas recipie more closely than I have in the past.Please keep me in your prayers.I am c/t off of about 18 a day...AGAIN.
I want to say sorry in advance for any negitive,cry baby post.I love and you guys so much for being there for me time after time............

I can't promise this, but I'm thinking day 4 will be much better.  I'm so sorry you are having a nasty day, but I'm so proud of you for doing this, you are so brave.  Take a look at the Thomas Recipe and see how many of those things you can get, I know that valium isn't something you can just pick up at the supermarket but maybe the other items.........Anyway I am here for you as you are always here for me, you are in my prayers sweetie.  By the way, you are doing this because you are way too beautiful a person to let this disease beat you!

Love you,
Lisa

I have read several of your posts, gotten encouraging messages from you, and you are one of my friends here.  You do nothing but help others, cash in on that here.  If we think you are a crybaby then we have learned nothing from this.  I think you're great and I look forward to hearing from you every day.  Hang in there darlin'  here comes the sun!

Love and Prayers to you,
Lisa

i think the N/A meetings are a wonderful idea, you really need to do this and with 2 great support groups you will. i know how bad you want this, but it won't be easy. i like the effort you are showing now to remain clean. aftercare aftercare aftercare. i was the king of relapsing until i had support. you have all the support in the world here.
