Hi folks
It's day two, and the emotions are running wild. I'm trying to stay busy, but all I want to do is cry. I'm also obsessing about calling a dentist. No no no no no. I may go to a meeting tonight, I can't take this and it's only day two. I'm sorry I'm whining but I am. Maybe I shouldn't have done this cold turkey. Well, it's too late now! I feel the panic starting too. Everything feels too overwhelming to do, but I'm forcing myself to do my life anyhow. I have to. Isen't it weird that I just can't do my life without opiates? Addiction sucks...I don't know what else to do. I'm really not having a good day so far. But this too shall pass, right? How long am I gonna feel this way?

Hey!

I know, you are in a tough spot right now. We are here for you!!!!!!! I know how hard this is and you CAN beat this..... I remeraber detoxing like it was yesterday and it's something I NEVER want to do again.

I hate to be the one to break it to you but day 3 and 4 are usually the hardest so try to mentally prepare yourself. By day 5 things will gradually start to get better, however, everyone is different and maybe it won't go this way for you.

What I do know is this is worth it! You need to take back your control and that is what you are doing now and I am proud of you for it. The emotional rollercoaster that comes along with this is a nightmare! I hate you are dealing with this right now but I swear in a weeks time..... Life WILL be better.

Post, post, post... It helps! Trust me. I will say some healing prayers for you!
 
more vics is temporary solution to a permanant problem . god bless read about others problems . it cuts yours in half scott:):wave:
 
Thanx Scott!
I called some old program frienRAB last night and it helped. I'm also trying to read other posts and respond, encourage. I'm grateful that I didn't hit a really bad bottom, other than being totally miserable right now, it's day three, and reality is confusing me, but after lots of crying last night I think I may have turned a corner. Takin' it one minute at a time

No thanks needed! You can call me Secrets.... the 1983 you can leave off...

I know that exact feeling.. "If I just take 1 pill, I will feel way better" DON'T!!!!!!! YOU need to take this control back. Every w/d symptom you feel is your body healing... A wise recovered addict told me that and her name is Reach. She is on this board and read as much as you can from her! She helped me a lot!

I don't have internet at home either so I am on at work too...... Just post when you can and keep us updated!!!!!!!

Hang in there! I beleive in you!
 
Keep going - you're heading in the right direction. It will be very hard the next few days, but you have to concentrate on the end result - the goal of being drug free. This is part of the education to keep you clean for the rest of your life. It hurts, but when you are tempted in the future, you will look back at the w/d's that you went through and you tell yourself, "Hell NO! I don't want to go through that again!!!" The thought of me walking around the house for hours upon hours, my body aching and so tired I'd be bouncing off the walls, is enough to keep me from going back.

Staying busy is the key. I would vacuum the house, cook dinner, do yard work, laundry - just to keep my mind occupied - my wife loved it!!! Now she expects me to keep doing it now that I'm drug free. :eek:

Stay on the track you are on and don't let the drug talk you into falling off.

Good luck to you!
