LOL...monthly roll call is a tradition now it seems...that is a great idea...hydros..1280-100 mgs and stopped them in february of 08//so a bit over a year ago now...i do know it takes a while to get back on ur feet when u quit ur doc..and triggers can pop up and make u weak so aftercare is important..i have been having a run of bad luck that is almost unbelievable in the past few weeks!..postying here has helped me alot thru the last year
WOW WISH I WAS AS FAR AS EVERYONE ELESE, 3 DAY'S CLEAN OF BENZO'S AND STILL FIGHTING STILL SICK. BENZO1961
Congrats to everyone, its very encouraging to see the numbers...big and small. After a 5 year, 20-30 mersyndol a day habit I've only got 24hrs in but its 24hrs more than I had in last week. I think I am learning very quickly what they mean by "one day at a time" or in my case one hour at a time. My next goal is 48hrs and I do worry that by then I will be hurting but the words from the members on here really show that it can be done. Thanks for all the help!
93 days from xanax (EVIL EVIL EVIL)!!!!!!!!!! everyday is better but then comes the rebound god I hate that but I thank god I am this far and want to thank every one on here for all the love and support

Sorry I'm late.
I'm just finishing a 24 hour shift.
I'm coming off a 1.5 year/60mg a day oxycodone habit. I guess from an amount standpoint, it wasn't that bad. Still, the first 4 to 5 days were awful. Days 6 to 8 weren't much better, but they were bearable. Now that I'm almost done with day 9, I hope that I'm over the physical hump.
So almost 9 days clean. Sleep is still a mystery. I've been taking sleep aids, and a combination of different sleep aids. Its just not really happening yet. I'm going to eat some lunch and then I'm going to lie down. Hopefully I'll get a couple of hours.
Thanks for all of the support everyone. I couldn't have made it this far without this place.
UNG
1 yr. vicodins ( after a 2 1/2 yr. use)
18 yrs. alcohol
Homemade poppy tincture, 11 days. Adderall, 54 days. Vicodin, I don't remember how long, and that depends on whether you count from when I last used it or when I broke the physical addiction anyway.
2 1/2 years vicodin
345 days methadone
yippee I get so exited for role call... Thx gizzy! Well I think I'm a bit confused....But that goes along with me being a complete airhead... I counted 52 days clean but I'm so bad with math... If I stopped on dec 20 then my post about being 30 days clean on jan 20 is false... Did I short myself? Ohhh I hate math:( anyways congrats to everyone who is clean or trying to get sober!!! Xoxo
I have learned that the path to recovery is many. What you guys do here is duplicated in many settings. Someone comes on site hurting looking for solutions and help to kick their addiction and you guys that have been here a while reach out and share your experience strength and hope. And thats how it works.Even the newcommers reach out to newcommers. Reading the above post addicts counting clean days .....the excitement there reminds me of my recovery in the begining So I send Love Hope and on those days that you feel like you can't do another day borrow the strength and courage from someone else.I send you love and if no one has told you that they love you today.....then I'm telling you Blessed Be
About 65 days and feeling terrific....from Hydro. I am so very greatful for the support and I don't think I could have made it without all the support....

53 YEARS (almost) of being sane (somehow) and still trying to save the world.
5,304 hours = a bit over 7 months clean from all opiates...thank you God and medhelp people....Congrats to everyone on their clean time be it 1 hour or 1 year
133 days clean of a 60-70 pill /day habit of lortab 10. While life has certainly sent me challenge after challenge, I can face my fears and my life head on without having to use over it and stuff all my feelings inside. I am thinking clearly, enjoy not being sick to my stomach 24/7 from handfuls of pills, and look forward to meetings and aftercare. Today I can look ahead and see a future, whereas before all I could focus on was where I would get my next fix.
Thanks to all on here who helped me and continue to give me support and encouragement.
Ya I also forgot to add my clean time from vikes.(which is the reason I got on the sub)...15 months.....omg I cant beleive it has been that long!

5 days off Tramadol. First three were a bear. Pretty rough. I know I don't feel great today, but because I don't feel really bad I feel good. Am I making sense? Above all, I am happy again.
