Glad to see you got a new job and I am so happy that you are doing it because it can and will be done if your mind is made up.
I am sure it has been tough and I commend you for doing it,but I feel you have the toughness to overcome this and get on with your life clean.
Working also helps because it helps pass time and detracts from the suffering.
Good luck in your healing and certainly keep us posted.
Yeah, you are so right. This has been tough so far, don't get me wrong. But I'm doing it, and it's getting easier. And since I have this new job, starting at 8:00am tomorrow, things will be fine. No **** test (figures...lol...now that I detoxed), but oh well, that means more money for us to save. It's an oilfield service job, so the pay will be great. But thanks for following along. Will post again tomorrow.
Yeah, the first day was bad....all those you listed was about right. But guess what, I start a new job tomorrow! I'm still feeling a little uneven now, and still a little sick at times, but I can hack it. I'm just going to take it easy today, and rest up. But this job will take the stress away for sure. It couldn't have come along at a better time. The first day, while drinking plenty of water, and using the melatonin to sleep through the bad times, I sweat out a good amount of it. The withdrawals are still apparent, but at least I can move around. Still getting hot sweats, and a little restless at times, but it's not unbearable. I'll have a new post everyday until I feel normal again.
Great to hear you are doing so well.......what was it like on Day 1 when your body realized there were no more opiates.....how bad was the craving and sick feeling? I find that when my body goes into 7 or 8 hours without meds, I feel like throwing up? Is this how you felt?
You should be so very proud......Take care.....

I am not sure where to post because I have been posting on all your threads.
Perhaps you can keep one thread and post your progress on it because I do not know where to reply.
I would like to wish you the best and follow your progress and cheer you along.
Remember..your daughter is more important than any stupid drug and you do not need opiates in your life,but you need your daughter in your life.
I congratulated you on getting your job erroneously,but good luck in getting a job and probably you can pass a urine test now.
It feels good to finally eat a little. I've spent two days drinking the nutritional shakes, but this morning I scarfed down some actual food. The Melatonin did me so well the first two days. When I felt the day was kind of dragging, I'd pop one, and boom....four hours gone. It kept me well rested. About to go get a haircut, and see about this job, but after that, it's back in bed.
