hello friends, name is Cheryl . Just joined but long opiod addict. I am on day 2 and very sick today but finally having some support from you fine people I don't feel so alone and hopeless. I'm just damned tired of being a slave to pills. Look forward to getting to know all of you.
Just celebrated my year at the end of January, thought I'd check in with everyone! I'm doing well, actually having a BABY BOY in May!! Woohoo, life is good. I still see a counselor and address my triggers, but am so thankful for the friends and help I had on here. One day at a time is all we are given, and so live it like your last!! Clean is ALWAYS better!
118 days since my last drink of alcohol.
Though alcohol is NOT my drug of choice, I could see how occasional use could have lead me into forming a new addiction. I am not against alcohol, but have learned that for a bipolar/addict like me, it is best I avoid anything that could become a new addiction. Luckily, I don't crave it or want any, but decided to make a new ticker to give me accountability to prevent myself from thinking it was okay to drink.
Wow ABN, congrats brother.
950 days since my last dose of methadone,
WE are making it one day at a time, never stop growing.
