relapsed

[daddy2]

Its been 8 days since I used I noticed that I relapse when my wife went to get money out of my checking account and it was almost empty that's the day I said I was done no more but now I can't sleep and feel jumpy has hell I don't know y but I have so much energy I don't know what to do with I guess it's my punishment for relapsing

I know it gets harder @ harder each relapse. I can't count how many times I relapsed and every time it was worse. Just tell yourself you don't ever eant to go through the hell of withdraws again. Make sure and have after care it gives you a much higher chance of not relapsing. Good luck to you.

This can be a very hard thing to go threw, you seem to be doing a good job so far. Do you have people to talk to, Wife, parents? Talking always helps. Keep up the great work.

Thank you I work a lot of hours so that keeps me busy I have no more pills and I don't talk to my hook ups yeah I pray just to keep my mind on a goal that's just not to use

Try to be patient with yourself. Get rid of all your pills and your resources. Time does heal. NyQuil can cause restless leg and nervousness. I wouldn't take it. Each detox gets worse, I hope and pray this is your last time.
Keep yourself busy, taking walks, errands, helping around the house, take some hot baths with Epsom salts. Are you attending any support groups and/ or counseling to prevent relapse?
You can do this. Many have walked this road and came out on the other side. Keep the faith.
Sending encouragement t and support,
Debbie

I know it just ***** sleep for a couple hours then up for days on end I got the niquell I know I spelled it wrong to help me sleep its like my brain is stuck on overdrive I'm always looking for something to do and have no idea what to do this is the worst it's ever been from the first time I stopped I know the damage I done to my family and my self I will not put them through this for a 3rd time

No punishment : )  For me the anxious, crawling out of my skin feeling was the worst.  My dr wrote me a few days worth of Clonidine and it really helped that symptom.

I liken it to years of eating like crap and finding out you have diabetes.  You make all the changes to your lifestyle but it still takes time to heal.  Our brains are healing and it takes some time.  Please hang in there - it gets easier, good and bad days, but overall easier!!

I tell myself all the time - The only problem the pills solved was the desire for another pill and even that only lasts a few hours.  They are slow acting poison.
