Day five of the big fight. Detox buddy

[intothedarkagain]

Here I am!
Day five of going clean.
Yes!!!!!! I am feeling so much better.
Not even close to being right, but as far as you could get from 4 days ago.
Thank you to everyone on here who has helped me over the last few days.
We are doing it right now.
Things are really happy for me.

Thank you everyone

Thank you for your words of encouragement. Boy, the other thread definitely grew since friday! I'll have to read it through and absorb as much as I can.

Illadelphia u can! Please look at the post we started a while ago. We all fall down, but those who pick themselves back up shine the brightest. I will be off and on less than last week but I will always be watching.

CONGRATS, Joshua! I wish I could say the same. It would have been day 5 for me, but I slipped last night, took 2 perc 10's and half of a 30, so 25mg of percocet. I feel like complete sh!t. I don't know if I'll ever be able to do this.

WTG I was worried about you and JT, keep it up man better days are around the corner. Have you talked with JT?

josh, way to go...I have to agree with sway, I have saw a post with soooo many replies, and thought it was a old one, but it was not...I didn't have time to read the post, but looks like you have alot of detox friends and clean ones here...
I really hope and pray this time you can get your life back....Glad to have you here at medhelp!!

Congratulations! Way to go. I have been reading your posts and think it is great that you and some of the other young guys have banded together in your fight. It will help more people than you know.  5 days is great....I always thought that one week is the key because you don't look back and say "last week at this time I had pills". Instead you look back after a week and say "last week at this time I was feeling like **** and now I'm so much better." Keep it up!

hey buddy! i am on day 5 too! it feels great! i gotta say i never saw anyone get so many responses as you. hmmm...i think all us addicts want and need lotsa friends who truly understand the hell we put ourselves through. i will be on here every day though i don't always post. let's keep an eye on each other. i'll make a deal with you, don't make me cross the country to whip your butt and i won't make you cross it to whip mine. sound good? my heart is so with you. blessed be.     sway

I'm very proud of you for facing this demon, and learning from it.. hopefully it will be the last time any of us ever has to do this.. we will win because we are ready.. someone once told me that to quit anything you have to be ready, and until you are you won't do it, you may try but won't succeed.. I can tell you're ready.. it may have taken you a while but if we all do this together we can pray this will be it and we'll take our lives back into our own hands and be the wonderful people we are meant to be...
