rough morning

[cant_keep_falling]

Wow am I having a rough morning, but at least my body let me sleep for a couple hours. I'm doubting myself this AM..BAD. Going to a meeting at noon, no matter how I feel, cuz I know I need the support badly today. Hubby is still gone, so I'm still goin this alone with 3 kids, but I'm doing it so that's all that matters. I miss my hunny but I'm starting to see that him being so far away, and me doing this on my own is probably a really good thing. I really need some encouragement this morning if anyone is here...

Day 10 here. It gets better!! For me around day 6 I felt human. Still up and down but miles better then in the beginning. Hang in there!! I sympathize totally!! I have two small kids that were sick when I went through the worst. It was hell but main thing is we pull through and it starts getting better. Lots of prayers coming your way!!

Try and find the positive in the day.  Look around at all you have to be grateful for, it is endless~~

You are doing great so keep it going.  This part is only temporary.  Keep fighting for you as you are worth it!!     sara

One hour at a time is sometimes all we can handle. First we pit down the drugs, then we go through WD, then we must face, if any, the destruction we created from our drug use. Great that your going to a meeting. Support is crucial for recovery. I'm day 20, still crave but I know it's because I don't want to feel. Addiction is cunning. It lays dormant inside of us and thrives on self loathing. But everytime we are honest and reach out to other people, it looses it's grip.
Your doing awesome!
Everyone here wants you to thrive!
And everyone here and at meetings knows exactly how you feel.

Kristen's right - it won't get better if you go back.  Only worse.

And keep telling yourself (because it's true) - that you only have to go through this ONCE - the withdrawal will end, recovery continues and it only gets better.  Remember ONCE - and then you're well on your way.

Hon, I'm still here with you, I swear! Dont give up, please! I'm on day 4 and it *****...but I know there is a light at the end of this tunnel and that's all I have to hang onto right now. You know as well as I do that if you give up now, you'll just be back here a month from now going through the same thing, it NEVER gets better, EVER! The hole just gets deeper and deeper until we are lying on it . I know its easier said than done, but I'm here with you. Keep your chin up, girl

Hi there!  feeling down and depressed, run down? Have you had anything to eat yet?  I know it's not really what you want to do, but you should eat something. A couple hard boiled eggs, some toast, a glass of juice and some fruit, like a banna will help you feel a little better.
Are you taking any amino acids? If so take them first.  A low dose of L-Tyrosine might help with your  mood a bit.

It actually good you have kids to keep you busy. It helps keep your mind of those "other" things. I Know it's hard to do, but you have to try keep focused on the positive things, like you made it another day!  You got more sleep, so that's an improvement too!

Going to that meeting will help as well, keeps you busy, and mingling with people keeps your mind focused. Plus going out will get you motivated enough so you can do any shopping you need to do.  It's all better than sitting home all day feeling bad and dwelling on it. By the time you get home, the kids will be home from school soon after, and you won't have time to brood. Then before you know it, you are through another day!! ;)
