Heres my accomplishments, learned from my past usage

here it goes, aiggh so i dont have anymore connects, cut them off 3 weeks ago, i changed my playground AND playmates!   im almost 2 weeks into this short relapes i made and im almost through the woods, ecept for sneezing, yawning and low energy, aside from that ive been working ALOT on my business yes i have my own company, also i bike ride 4 miles aday, i lay by my jacozzi and pool 3 hours aday  and walk 2 miles aday, from the first day ive been doing this and boy let me tell you, it has really passed the time and i feel like this time wasnt as bed problibly becuase i made my self focus on other activities, i go to the batting cage, tiki island and the beach with my buddys in central florida every so often, now i do still get bored, but i make myself get up and out, i used to just sit pop pills and watch the news all day every day,  theres so much more to ife this this guys, when i was clean for 2 months b4 i went to key west a few nights, got laid..lol  went to Atlanta, worked my butt off, and never once worried am i going to have enough pills, staying clean is so much more imperative then chasing the dragan so to speak    im being told that this has to happen and this too shall pass, im staying strong, its so easy to be tempted into taking pills but you gotta stay strong, become a sucess story not a stastistic guys, i mean this, i got a good tan, im pretty happy, kinda waiting to see what tomorrow brings, my business has really picked up also!!   that makes me proud,  and i say all of that to say this, if you have to work or have kids at home while your detoxing, it may seem a million times harder, but it will pass the time...I havent watched a tv in 2 weeks..  i keep it off, part of this is changing our habits and routines.. its a journy and process we must take, you as well as i know that running out early on meds, or chasing it, theres going to be a time where you wont b able to get your meds on time and this process starts again..  im a Taurus and very hard headed, it maybe the hard way but I DO learn    stick to this Forum, it can change your life if you let it!

Change can be good. Most addicts are afraid of change. I used yo cook dinner everyday and have the house spotless when my husband came home and laundry was done and folded everyday. All of this while high...it made me "superman" in a way. Now I let that laundry sit for a couple hours or a day. My husband now helps with dinner and dishes. He also helps clean. I Never wanted to be the wife who's husband helped around the house...I wasn't raised that way. A man works and the woman tends to the house and children. Now i let it slide lol. And the tv thing...i wont watch Journey to Mysterious Island the one with The Rock. ..it would be on everyday while I was high and id watch it. Now I skip the channel. Change is awesome when we embrace it positively. Good job!!
