33 Days and 1 Day? Hydrocodone/Suboxone

Hello.  Again...with the help of Suboxone, I have been 33 days clean from Hydrocodone.  To make a long story short...33 days ago when I started taking Suboxone, I abused it for the first week, finally coming to my senses I started to take the Suboxone responsibly and came up with a taper plan that I stuck to.  For those that know....I start my vacation to Vegas tomorrow, so today was supposed to be the final day of an 11 day taper plan I had in place.  I had planned and assumed to take 0.5mg, but I got so busy getting ready to go to Vegas tomorrow that time flew by today and before I knew it, it was after 10pm, so what's the point now?  So, technically...it's been a day.  I am bringing some emergency Suboxone to Vegas with me, but I don't plan to use any.  Long and short of it.  I feel great.  It's funny, a day or 2 ago I was feeling a little edgy and energetic and thoughts in my mind went towards withdrawl symptoms, then I realized something.  That's just me.  That's how I used to be.  I am usually always a little edgy and energetic.  It's funny how you even forget who you used to be through all this mess.

Well, this will be my final post for a little over a week.  I wish all of you luck on your journey and for those thinking of quitting, just do it.  It's a no brainer that it's worth it.  God Bless.

Barry
