MAYDAY, MAYDAY - why now?

Is it because its Friday, or that its gloomy or that I am tired, stressed an way behind at work?  I have had 3 glorious days without cravings and today it is all I can do to prevent myself from going to my neighbors and asking for something for PAIN!!!!   Yesteday during a business lunch, a woman who has a torn rotator cuff pulled out her Vicodan and ate one in front of me.  NO AFFECT.  If that would have been today, I would have ripped it out of her hand and swallowed it before she knew what hit her.  ARGHHHH!!!!

I was wondering where you had been. I am like you, if I am going through a rut i dont' post cause i just can't be positive then, lol.  What the hell are you doing looking for vic's? Do I need to put the boot on for a bunch of us, ha. Congrats on those 100 days, since this whole week has been like this, maybe your having PAWS, especially around the 3 months mark. You need to be here posting, you have come too far to fall back. Hang in there lil mojo.

What is going on here today? So many people are craving. As you know it's part of addiction and sometimes can be very difficult when that mind changes and we start thinking those stupid thoughts. I just try to change thoughts by staying busy, venting on here, going to see a friend, whatever it takes. I have felt weird all day, like i want to just let loose and party, but I am not craving so it's strange. Since it's Good Friday keep yourself occupied with family and remember those 3 GLORIOUS days you said you had. I know you will be fine, but it ***** when we starting craving. Stay strong
