7 days clean from Norco? Would it be ok to have a margarita?

[Miriska]

I never drank and took Norco at the same time. I normally drink one to two drinks every couple of months. I would never drink within 6 hours of a pill or vice versa. I am looking forward to a day in the sum with friends. I rarely drink more then 2 drinks because I just manage to end up tired. Is it advisable forms to allow myself one or two margaritas spaces out of course? This would be Saturday my 7th day Norco free. No other drug or alcohol abuse history:)

I think it's your call but I know personally I'm trying my hardest to go all natural. Like you say it will probably just make you feel like crap this soon putting more toxins in your body. Maybe a virgin one. No fun I know!

Lol I've never done blow and it's not gonna be that kinda party lmao. A back yard BBQ with some sheriffs officers i know and their families. They will be drinking a lot of beer (which I don't touch) and making margaritas for those who don't drink the beer. I am still on fence on if it will add to my depressive symptoms. I don't fear wanting pills or going further I just don't want to feel like crap honestly. So I guess that's my answer just say no until I'm the baseline of me when I'm not still in crappy mode. Thank you for the sound advice!

Hi there! So basically bielive every has to find what works best in their sobriety but what I can do is the you a little story about me :)

I was 4 weeks clean off a large norco addiction. I considered. Myself a s
"Social" drinker always. I didn't drink when I took pills etc (sound famiar? Lol) anyways. I went to my friends bday party at a bar mind you! And before the night was over I did an incredible thing! I turned down pills that were offered to me!! I was stoked!! Saying no was incredible!

So I decided to "celebrate" turning my DOC down by drinking! Next thing u know, I'm drunk (wasted) doing a line of blow in the bathroom (which I hadn't done in 20 years and hooking up with someone I shouldn't have!! But hey, I didn't do pills!! Right??

Lol so as I said, u have to make ur own choice! Moral of the story is the drug bone is connected to the drinking bone which is connected to the "I'm an as*hole bone" lol you get the jist!

Hope u make the right choice for you :)

I'm not familiar with your story, but I feel that any mood altering chemical is not a good idea in early recovery. I guess my goal is to live life on life's terms. I want to feel like I don't need anything but my health and loving family. I've had a couple drinks here and there, but not in the first 90 days. So much of our emotional self is wrapped up in opiates, not a lot of stability right after detox. Do I think it will ruin the work you have done so far, no, but will it make you a better person, probably not. My situation was very different, I'm sure, but I had to do everything I could to recover and avoid anything that could possibly cause me to stumble. That's my take on it, a happy person could have just as much fun with a virgin drink.
