Day two

Well, I took two vallium last night, and it finally put me to sleep. I am sooooooooo glad I didn't have a problem with vallium also. I tried telling different people that the way I was addicted to meth was different than the way I was addicted to vicodin. I mean, yes, I said last night that I don't want them but if they were around, I would take them. It is because of the WD's that I would take them. The way I feel RIGHT NOW, I would not, I don't know if this is supposed to change but I feel like almost nothing wrong at all. It's kinda scary because it's like a calm before the storm. Last night, after I went to sleep, then I would wake up different times, I didn't have RLS and I was able to go back to sleep pretty easy. I don't know why the only symptom I am feeling now is that stomach pain, but if this is it, it's not fair to other people. Since I don't think I am getting off this easy, I took my morning stuff for it anyways just in case it's hiding and then going to pop up soon. I don't think anyone in the history of being alive has taken norcos for 8 months, up to 12 pills a day, then stops and only goes through what I did and that's it. It has to be coming back, just don't know when.

I mean, I still feel sick, but not like I did yesterday. Anyways, I have some work to do, I will be back on later.

I don't know if this is acceptable here, or wanted, but people will let me know for sure.

There is a song I listen to, it gives me strength like no other. It might and it might not help anyone else.

It's called Parabola by TOOL

We barely remember who or what came before this precious moment,
We are choosing to be here right now. Hold on, stay inside
This holy reality, this holy experience.
Choosing to be here in

This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in
This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal
All this pain is an illusion.

Alive, I

In this holy reality, in this holy experience. Choosing to be here in

This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in
This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal
All this pain is an illusion.

Twirling round with this familiar parable.
Spinning, weaving round each new experience.
Recognize this as a holy gift and celebrate this chance to be alive and breathing.

This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality.
Embrace this moment. Remember. we are eternal.
all this pain is an illusion.

Will do, and that must be it, cause I was great when I first woke up, and then it hit again. Yeah, I will keep the mindset while cursing as loud as I can.

Nevermind, I am feeling it. I guess I just needed to get up and around for me to feel those wonderful "you screwed up, by taking pills for to long" WD's.

Sometimes, withdrawals come in HUGE waves but are not constant. It's like a great tsunami and then calm.  Crazy but it happens.

Attitude is everything!  You prepared and planned for this so, mentally, you were in the right place.  You were smart to continue with your morning routine...be sure to eat and keep drinking!!
