Percocet Detox: Day 4

[slim76]

Here I am starting Day 4 already!!!! So I woke up at about 7:30AM which seems like a decent night sleep almost 8 hours! Still using the Ativan since it does curb the emotions and helps me to rest easy, probably going to try today without but we shall see. Outpatient Rehab at 10AM EST so I will report back after that to let you all know how it went. I am not experiencing so much of the emotional rollercoasters that I had been, they are less frequent and I seem to be functioning more around the house. My wife has been so cool leaving me all the time I need to rest or sit in the tub (Epsom Salt Baths are awesome btw). I feel good about getting back to work Monday, but I definitely need the weekend to rest and enjoy my family. I am so blessed! I keep thinking back to my first day of outpatient therapy when my counselor did an interview with me to find out all about my life.... I never realized how broken I really was. So many questions I had to answer yes to... Sexual Abused as a child? Yes/ Ever try Cocaine? Yes/ Ever lied to someone about an addiction? YES/ Any history of Depression in your family? YES/... Oh my Lord the list just went on and on.... I am not using these experiences as an excuse for Drugs rather a reason to stay in therapy. Thanks for the support! God Bless

Be sure to get some aftercare.  I did the out patient rehab , but the seem to bail on you when it comes to the after care.  The aftercare treatments are just so expensive I just can't afford it.  I should go to meetings no excuse.  It's crazy but the mental withdrawal is so much harder then the physical.  Congratulations I wish you the best. Be patient and take your time

Hey slim, congratulations on day 4!  It sounds like you are doing great. The Outpatient rehab appears to be really helping. Keep moving forward each day, and let us know how you progress.  Take care.
