Preparing. Again.......

Starting fresh. Mentally ready . Will be going from 1 to 3 everyday sometimes every skipping weekends, a day for 5 weeks. Physically not looking forward to it. Gotta do it at work. I work 2nd shift, so will be long day! What can I take tonight to help with tomorrow and next few days? This is it. 1st time trying to quot , first relapse. Detoxed majorly 1.3 months ago. That was horrible. 2 weeks of he'll. Stayed clean for 16 days..... From 15 vic a day for almost 2 years. Now take minimum amount. Started again foe legit pain but now I know you can't take them without mentally wanting more. So before I climb the ladder taking more than 3 a day, I want to stop on my tracks. Wish me luck. Any tricks ? I have vitamins, etc. Thanks. God bless. Tomorrow it is.

hey Kim theres kinda an unwriten rule to detoxing on the forum DONT make any life changing decisions b/4 your 90 days clean....your mind plays games with you during this time many a wife or husband has wanted to leave there spouse its kinda a reflex action to just wanting things better during detox where often at each others throats if in 90 days you still feel the relationship is toxic the by all means make the move theres no reason to have someone beating you down ether physically or emotionally your friend Mark

Good for you, that's a lot of pills you flushed. So happy you found the strength to do so. I think church will be a wonderful thing for you ( and me) to do Sunday, that will start the week off right! Best of luck to you. You can do this.

hey kim,
the reference to a mustard seed in scripture is used to make an analogy. a mustard seed is very,very small, so it means all you need is faith that is that size and that faith can move mountains. got it?
you need to fight the tempation of those evil and demonic pills with all that you have in you.
your very life depends on it. please continue with the counseling. pray,pray,pray
the LORD is able to do great and mighty things.
sending hugs and blessings

Another question, any supplements I can take tonight so tomorrow will be bearable? I have nausea medicine and all stuff from 1st detox. Except low on benzo for anxiety, but will buy valerian root. So scared but want it so badly ! I want to say , 15 days clean! 30! 60! 100! Etc. Church on Sunday for first time in a long time. Energy is the worst! That's what scares me since my family expects the world. I do everything . Like a single mom, my 3 kids plus husband equals 4 kids. 3 dogs, a bird, 2 turtles. A job, 10 hr days, soccer, dance class, new school starting. Omg. How will I do this. :(

Thanks mark. I will remember the scripture. Also, my family does not know this time. My husband would be livid, not support me since relapse. Last  time he threatened me he would leave if I took 1 pill. So I have to withdraw as If all is okay. I don't know how I will but I will. Also what is a mustard seed? Thanks for always inspiring me.

Kim seak shelter in God it worked for me this ose some of my most imitate times with God I had no choice I was helpless but threw the powers of Christ Jesus I was set free from the bondage of addiction it only takes the faith of a mustard seed when everything else fails he will be there with poen arms to deliver you of this addiction trust him I think I said
''all thigs are possible threw Christ Jesus;; a thousand times but he brought me threw it....all I know is I couldent have done it without God.....get some scriptures in your mind and repeat them to yourself over and over the enemy cant strick you if you do that remember faith willl bring you threw this when nothing else will may God be with you and your family
your going to make it I have faith in you....your friend Mark
