Rolllllllllll Callllllllll

I know we had a roll call not to long ago, but it's time for another one. There has been some negativity here lately and I was even feeling a bit negative the past couple days, but each one of us here is fighting for the same thing and we want to see everyone clean and happy. Lets brag about our clean time again, it's always great to read.

I do want the newcomers to know that they help us even if a day clean. I remember that feeling at first and being so scared, but for me reading those stories, reminds me of the beginning of recovery and it helps. We are in this together and together we will win this war. Brag away everyone. Each day COUNTS. I am 102 days and taking it one day at a time. Congrats to all:)

198 days and going strong! Its been tough the past week as I've had a constant headache that will peak into a migraine and then come down to a managable pain. My Nuero has offered whatever I need. I declined and continue to stick it out. I have one thing I have found that helps. It too however, has its cons.
I've tried Excederine, BC, Green Tea, Grapes(old Bernarr Macfadden remedy), exercise, sex, sleep...........Nothing is killing this one. I can feel it in my neck, causing nausea. Flashbacks of this time last year. Weather changes wreak havoc.
Still have my clean time though.

Im Erin. Im 25 years old and i am addicted to xanax. Im tapering it down and its been the hardest/scariest thing ive ever had to do in my life. This site has offered a lot of help and support and I'm so glad I found it. I probably wouldn't be doing as well without the support. I've been sick for weeks and incredibly lonely and scared. But I dont feel as alone now that I know there are a lot of people out there like me. I did not know how addicting xanax was when i started taking it. Had I known what would happen when trying to stop taking it i would have gladly had my random panic attacks. But no point in looking back. Im just trying to look ahead and have a positive outlook on the future.  Thanks to everyone for the support and advice. Its been incredibly helpful.

hey buddy....long time no chat.....how long have we been here now??? I think it's been almost 3 years!!! glad to see some of the old timers still around..
I'm feeling some of the 'negativity' you wrote about....I have to remember I have no control over others and their responses on this site....
We are here to help people seeking information and help from those of us who have been down this road before.

day 11 over and feeling back to myself today with no WD symtoms, but one day at a time. :)  I agree, I have been feeling down the last couple of days about the forum and I realized I have to change my attitude.   Yes, I admit I was negative and  am working on that.  Thanks to everyone that is still sticking with me.  I am so amazed with all the above stories.

Hey all. I'm new to this site but am ending day 3 I'm at about 77 hours clean off norco. I can't wait to get out of bed and begin my new life. I can't wait to smile again. To laugh again. And most of all to feel again. Especially to feel happiness.
Congrats to all!
You've all been a great inspiration to me!
