Hi, Well you are now 19 hrs past your last day 3.  I'm on day 3, again.  I do this monthly, which can't be good for my body, then get my refill, and take them all within 2-3 weeks and don't really feel better at all, just more energy.  I do drink a lot of wine in the first week, just to get by and forget how I feel which is probably bad.  I"m hoping this forum will help me too.  Its been 6 yrs on Norco now and I'm just done.

71 days off of Vicodin. I don't drink alcohol anymore either. No mind altering anything!
In NA they say drinking alcohol is a drug and when your an addict, it can release our addiction all over again. Please be careful and aware during the holidays!
For anyone struggling, I NEVER thought I could stop my addiction but it's possible with love and support, especially from other addicts.

I have 20 days today. I have slipped twice and taken 2 pills over a two week period, but have tried to not beat myself up over it. The cravings were really strong over the holidays, but when I slipped, it was a sickening feeling. I'm so thankful to have come from an everday user to having a clean life. I actually cleaned my house well; the first time I have done this in years.Just want everyone to know we're not perfect and **it happens, and it's not an excuse to go back to the old life. I find comfort in reading my original posts and thinking about the struggle I have overcome.

I'm in day six. I just admitted I'm an addict  those were hard words to swallow. I fell down a couple of times but I've made it. I'm six days with no oxies. I feel so strong with myself like I can do this. I'm still having big urges. But I will not cave. I'm going to na. I'm learning how to live all over again. I know I don't have much clean time. But marathons are won with each step we take. For the first time in two years or longer. I am in Christmas spirit. I can feel my old self showing me small.peeks of my former self. I have set small goals daily and accomplish one every day. This will be the best Christmas present I can give myself. I wish everyone success. We are stronger than a pill or whatever we abuse. Rember that. We choose. And everyday we have thousand of choices to make. Doing the right thing will lead us to the right places. I want to thank each and everyone of you. I couldn't even admit my addiction let alone get six clean days. One more and I've made it a week. This is the longest ive been clean.
