Today was a Good Day!! Day 8!!

Well, today is the first day I kinda felt ok.  I guess its just that I finally felt a lil releif from all the w/d symptoms.  *** it was good!!  I swear I been praying that it last!!.  Of course I stayed pretty busy today too.  I know I am not no where near out of the woods, or over the hump yet, but, I just praise God and soooo appreciate him allowing me to have a lil bit of releif...even if it is just for today.  Which is a great motivator to keep fighting, and keep on keepin on!  For all that are new, you can do it, but you got to reeeeeaaaaally want to, because this is going to be one of the hardest things in your life to do.  I know I am not well yet, but this is my 3rd attempt, and they say the third times a charm.....rite?  Im trying to keep that in mind.  (smiles)  God Bless you all, and if you decided, for whatever reason that you needed to stop, then that lets you know, something was definitely wrong with what you were doing, so just know you have to stop, and give it all you got to do that.  All you got in you, and then some, is what it is going to take......at least thats what is required of me!!   Hang in there, we will get well again, if you really want to.

Hey that is great that you are feeling better today.Staying busy is going to be the key for a while.It's just wear yourself out do everything you can think of and at the end of the day tired but less stressful.Great attitude.I lacked in attitude but made up for it in just thinking that every day my job was not to use and to get the day over with.Sounds like you are doing great and feeling ok.Can't ask for much more than that...cool

This is the kind of post that should be printed out and placed on the refrgerator......HUGE congratulations on the 8 days - - but keep in mind that you will be tested in some way and at some time. It happens when you are complacent and dont recognize that the monster will always be there in the cage, but you yourself hold the key to that cage! congratulations again and keep posting. And remember that 1 pill is too many and a thousand arent enough.
