Try and stay away from anything with caffeine right now.  It can make things worse.

Sleep is the hardest thing we usually have to deal with.  It will come back and when it does you will feel like a million dollars!!   Hopefully you will get some tonight.  If you dont i will be up!!

I used 50-100mg of Benedryl to help me sleep when I was detoxing  and it worked fine.  The first few nights were still pretty restless, tho.  Hang in there, you CAN do it!!!  And just say NO!

Bella I took a sleeping pill that you can get at Wal-Mart, Kroger, CVS, Wal-Green ... pretty much any where.  Its the same thing any where just in store packaging.  Look for the one with the ingrediant doxylamine succinate.  It really helped me.  A lot of people also suggest Melatonin, but it made me dizzy.  You might try it.  Just because it made me dizzy, it probably won't you.  Things effect different people differently.

Dont lie in bed and toss and turn whatever you do.  That just makes it worse.  Do you like to read?  Watch a movie?

Dont spend alot of time beating yourself up.  That just creates more negativity.  Gotta get rid of the connections, no matter what.

Do you work every night of the week?  If not ask for the night off the meetings are going on if possible.

You can do this!!  Now fight for you as you are worth it.          sara

I think hes talkin to you on the supply thing. He's prolly right.  Okay he's definitely right. Let me know when you start to get sick again. So we can share in this joy.  :)

Pick yourself up, dust yourself off and move forward. No feeling sorry for yourself, okay?

You need to do something about your supply of pills. I don't know if they are calling your name from a bottle in the house or a "friend" down the street. Either way, change needs to be made there.

As far as meetings, I don't know where you live but you will be hard pressed to find a morning meetings unless you are in a big city. AA normally has a noon meetings, even in rural areas so try that.

Mostly, hang in there. Keep your eyes on the prize!!

"I too now am in the framing business" obscure movie reference there.  So yeah, for days in. Relapsed last night.  Got some sleep though.  Sitting here now wondering when the other shoe is gonna drop.  Also fighting the urge to get more.  They are "available" .  NO! Not this time.  Welcome to day 1.  We can do this.  God still loves us. Even if we don't love ourself.
Hang in there.
