Wow!! What a huge response!! Thank you everyone who posted,and please know that no matter what your clean time is,it is sacred. You have to start somewhere,sometime.Reading everyone's posts really lifted my spirits today!! And thanks for posting suggestions on how to deal with those rough spots. I think we all need to hear these positive stories,which is 1 of the reasons why I post the Roll Calls bi-monthly.

367 days off opiates!! Like the earlier post said, it is so nice to not have to count pills for every single event that takes place in your life. I'm living again and it feels good. Everyone have a nice day!

49 days here (I think)!
I have been a little down the past week and beginning to wonder if it is really worth it but I know it is so I keep fighting.
Went out last night and got a pedicure, a nail fill and my hair cut and colored and it felt so damn good!
Yesterday while my daughter was napping, I looked through her 1 year Bday party pictures and broke down. Not only was I not in any of the pictures, I also was high as a kite and don't remember a lot of it. It's things like this that keep me going!
Congrats to everyone!

421 days since I kicked the roxy 30s to the curb. Yeah it was hard but living my life without pills was worth the price.

14 Days!!! It feels SO  SO great to go places and do things without having to worry about did I bring enough pills???!!! LOL I know some of you have been there, that uhoh moment when you want to go somewhere & start frantically counting to see if you've got enough pills to get you through... no more of that for me!!! I'm so relieved to just go & do things without needing a pill....Congrats to EVERYONE!!!

Minn here. I just counted and 99 days for me. At first I tracked minutes, then hours, then days, then weeks. I kinda knew roughly how long it had been but to count it. Wow. 99. Gunn, my pennies have almost added up to a dollar ;) I am proud of each and every one of us! :D

Today is 114days off perks,,I feel like me again,,finally. It was a long painful journey in the earlier days mentally and physically but today I realize it was all worth it in the end. My guard is up. Lately I have had some cravings,,they come fast and leave as fast as they come. I try to identify what is happening in my life or what am I feeling at that moment that I am craving and deal with the feelings. I also started sucking on butterscotches candy lately when I feel a craving and that really really helps me too. And "girl" 3 days or 300days its all one and the same,,we both share the common denominator and that is we are sober. Way to go on day 3!!! Never minimize any clean time!! One day at a time and keep it simple ((Hugs))~Bkitty
