1 year pain meds free!!

I made it to one year on 9 July.  I am so proud of myself.  I did have to take some pain meds for surgery in March but I was only on them for 10 days and had no trouble stopping.  Don't get me wrong I do miss that energy I had when taking them but my back pain now is not as bad as I thought it was while taking them.  Best decision I ever made was going cold turkey.  The first 10 days was brutal but I made it and I am so much happier.  I just wanted to share my news with everyone trying to quit.
