You are right about that VICourageous!! Georgia... I’m not sure if you are aware at how bad this is. Again, it’s not to discourage you in anyway. It’s actually to help you understand that this is going to be a fight and you better want it more than anything or you are going to get knocked out. I played a ton of sports and I was an all American when I played college football. That being said, this is the hardest thing I have ever had to overcome. So if you are not really ready to quit, you will not have any shot. I’m extremely ready to quit and I want it more than anything and I have still failed. I made it to day 4 two times in 3 weeks. Again, I just want you to understand what you are dealing with here. BUT… you can beat it and there are a ton of people that have done it on this site. There is a ton of knowledge, encouragement and support on here. If you really want this, you need to follow what they say and be prepared for the fight of your life…. literally!
No one i know except her, knows. excepts my friends that are addicted with me. yesterday she was very supportive. today not so much.i tried to go withoit today and didnt make it amd she was very upset with me. i can basically feel her looking down on me bc im a drug addict.
hi yes we are still here. when you post on your thread it brings it back to the top of the page.
that is a huge step in the right direction admitting to your fiancé that you are addicted.
how did she take it? did she already know? does she use too?

That is great that you told your fiance! Big step in the right direction doing that. How are things going between the 2 of you now that it's all out in the open? How are you coming along with quitting? How are you feeling?
I'm proud of you because you haven't done anything today AND because you said "NO" to the guy on the phone. That's great!
