Days clean??

[Firefaery1023]

Why is is that I have no idea how many days clean I am?  I think it is because I have relapsed a few times and am not sure when I officially stopped.  I know that it has been awhile now, but I am not sure to how many days it is.  Is there anyone else out there that has this problem?

Jacqi, you are wonderful sweetheart!! Thank You!

I would make you whatever you want, esp. seeing's I got mint choc chip on hand!  Believe me, you are talkin' to the wrong person if you wanna kick the ice cream habit!  LOL  : )

Oh...mint chocolate chip, that is my favorite!!  Are you going to make me a sundae?? lol
I love you guys for providing your input.  Thank you so much I can't say that enough.  This place has gotten me through the worst of my addiction.  I am now doing much better and I think I am a month clean at least.

[Jacqui805]

Yeah, I'll take the junk food eating over drug eating any day!  I'm glad you're moving past those cravings, and I say, celebrate with another scoop of ice cream..  I'll have mint chocolate chip or coffee flavored with chips..please.  ...and don't be shy with the whipped cream either!

Thanks, I am glad that I am not the only one here sucking down food.  The thing is that I don't seem to be satisfied with just one.  I think about them when I am at work, I get excited to get home and have one.  This is sick.  But at least I am not thinking about when my next pill is, I am thinking about something a little bit better. After awhile that isn't going to be good for my body either. I am just glad that I am clean and that my craving for pills are less and very rare at this point.  The longer I go the easier it gets.

I have my journals to keep track, otherwise, I'd have no idea too.  The important thing, is that you ARE clean, and that's hard enough.  I've been sucking down Heath bars like crazy this week, and I totally dig ice cream...so, how's about combining them!?!

Congratulations on how ever many days clean. And the ice cream sounds like a good addiction for now. Keep looking ahead.

[Firefaery1023]

Thanks for the encouragment!! I know that after my last relapse, the withdrawals weren't so bad so I don't remember the day and hour of my last pill.  I guess that my last relapse wasn't so bad.  I remembered the hour and minutes of my last pill the first time that I had withdrawals.

I don't keep up with it on a day to day basis. All I know is every Friday is another week and i had wrote on my calender the day I went ct. So I can count by that if I need to. In the beginning I even knew how many hours it had been. I don't think it becomes as imortant to you once your past the hard part. but, yes if someone would ask me on a random day how many days it had been I would have to at least think about it. The important thing is that your clean!!!! And congrats for that!!!!!!!
