Day 6

[VOsRose]

Hi, all.  I am now on Day 6 and feeling totally back to normal.  I have to take my daughter to 10th grade orientation today, so I'll be here on and off.  I hope everyone is doing okay this morning.  We went to see Rush last night...it was so great!  But...the concert was outdoors in August in Houston...need I say more??  We didn't get in until around 3:00 this morning and that makes two nights in a row with just a few hours of sleep and I'm a little tired this morning.  Still working on my first cup of coffee...hopefully that will help!  

I'll check in with everyone later today....

I don't know what to say.  I'm so glad it touched you that way.  You are going to be just fine...I know you will.  I'm proud of you and every day is going to be better than the one before.  Keep up the good fight and let me know how you're doing, okay?

Good for you!!!!  50 hours!!  That's wonderful...you're going to feel even better this time tomorrow...wait and see!  Maybe you'll be at your therapists when UPS comes!!!  God works in mysterious ways sometimes.  I promise you that by this weekend you're going to be feeling so much better and by the end of your vacation, you're going to be feeling great!  

I will be checking on you today, so please keep me updated.

I'm sitting here at work, just had a client meeting at their office felt pretty good, had some energy, I'm definitely headed in the right direction...it was good to read about the prescription fraud and other 'ricks' we pull on our loved ones or even the doctors who trust us...it makes me realize how low I once was and makes me that much stronger.  If you can quit your 60-80 per day why can't I quit my 8-10 per day?  I'm looking forward to my vacation in Montauk, DRUG-FREE!!!!!!  I need to get to Sat morning and then off to relax and think about getting better.  I also made an app't for a therapist tomorrow at 11...it can't hurt to talk about it with someone.

I'll check in during the day...50 hours and counting!!!!!

Congrats on day 6, woman! Its true, you are an inspiration to us all! Today is day 3 for me and I am feeling a world of difference compared to yesterday and the day before. Thank you for always posting such positive messages!

(***so, i copied your post from yesterday morning and pasted into my personal online journal as words of inspiration and i read it and my response back to you to my mom over the phone last night and both of us cried. it was amazing and beautiful. thank you, over and over again. :)

By tomorrow or Friday you're on the downhill slide, buddy!!!  Don't accept that package...please!  I'm begging you!!!!  It's going to just keep getting better from there.  Please let me know how you're doing through the day today.  Know that tomorrow it will start getting so much better, okay??  You don't want to undo what you've done by taking even one pill.  I'll be around and I'll be here to help you.

Awesome!  You keep me going on.  I'm on day 3 and I slept a little last night...still feeling a little weird...and I find the mental part of the pills is tugging at me.  Now I understand what everyone means about the mental part.....Still fighting and hopefully I'll say NO when the UPS truck comes by.  Maybe not until tomorrow or Friday at least. That will give me that much more time to appreciate the addiction I'm going through and to not fall back into 'just one'
Thank you all for being there.

Thanks!  Good luck on your upcoming marriage, also.  I wish mine was still next year!

Congrats!!!!! On day 6 and your wedding.  I am getting married next year.   Good luck.  And keep on trucking forward.  

[VOsRose]

Thanks!  Yes, I've been given a gift.  And I sure needed it.  My wedding is a little over 2 weeks away...Yikes!  My palms got sweaty typing that!  We all need to inspire each other...it's what will help keep us sober and in recovery.

Have a fantastic day!
