Kita's not cloudy anymore! 22 days and counting!

Hi everyone!! I just wanted to post a lil somethin' for those who are starting their WD's. I'm 22 days absolutely CLEAN off of Norco and Vicodin. At the time i didn't know i had an addiction until i tried to quit. What a revelation that was! Like most of the folks on here, we start very innocently thinking, the pills we take are just for the pain. But low and behold... we become full blown addicts. The fear, the guilt take over and we talk ourselves out of quitting because of the pain we know we will endure. I'm here and many other folks can attest that you can get through the pain. It's short time frame, it may feel like forever but in the big scheme of things, it's nothing. At least for me. I know enough now to not want to EVER go through that experience again! I keep busy, I work, I go to school and all without being high! I never thought i could do it! Daily vitamins, lotsa protein and i feel really, really good. HANG IN THERE! xoxo

That's great Kitascloudy!!!! Congratulations!!!
I know so many people out there have real pain and like you said, starting taking pain pills as medicine and before they knew it, they were addicted. That wasn't my story. I loved my Vicodin buzz and obviously wanted to escape. Whatever the reason is, you are a true testament that people can get clean.
Thanks for posting!!!!
