well... i was here back in Dec, then didn't show my face cuz i went back to the little fiendish pills.. but here i am again, day 9 and doing just fine...  no cravings, w/d wasn't the MOST fun, but not terrible.. and just taking each day as it comes and dealing with the lethargy.

good to see people that have made it a long time, i plan on it for good this time my self.  Already had situations where i thought i would do better on pills than clean, and i was actually better clean as i was ME and not my "alter pill-head ego"

anyway, i was here, i was gone, i be here.

Day 22 for me and still around.  Have been off the site because I left it up over the weekend and my girlfriend read everything.  She was upset (I was out of town and she let me know she knew via phone) - but she's been very supportive and I'm glad I don't have any secrets anymore.  It's also another person I don't want to disappoint and will help me stay clean.

However, it's strange to have the closest person in your life read your diary of thoughts that were at one time anonymous.

Cannot really say that I am back like before, but I can say that I will drop in more often to try and see what the good people are up to and try and lend some thoughtful ideas, and kind words.  It is nice not even getting high off these meds and just going through my day without 100% pain and being able to do things again.  I am even working again. Things are better than ever in my house.

Thank you to all the supporters.  I alomst forgot how nice it feels when people understand where you are coming from and care about your situation.  I had became very bitter about this site and many of the people that were bashing my situation.  I am proud that I am FOR ONCE able to manage my pain medicine and not abuse it.  I dont even split them, chew them, or crush them anymore.  Just take them AS DESCRIBED BY THE DR.  So I am going to be proud of that!

THANK YOU ALL.

LOVE YOU ALL.

SEE YOU SOON,  WILL

lack of energy is par for the course..Congrats on day 8!! I know you won't feel like it, but, make your self get outside and take a walk or something just to get yourself moving..exercise definately helps fight the fatigue and also muscle cramps etc..time is something that we just can't get past..it will eventually get better..Your body needs to get itself back together..good luck..

Day 8 is large bro and you are making it well. The lethargy stays around for a bit of time I have been taking the recommended supplements and just waiting it out as it is probably the last to return. I hope you the best and hope to see u around. I suggest reading and posting as much as possible here because the support helps so much it is unreal. I would have never believed it had someone told me. Hang in there, Mike

glad to see your post!!!!  was just wondering how you were doing...where you were....etc.   don't get down on yourself....you're doing the right thing for yourself for right now....and that's what's most important....everything will happen in the right time....the right thing for you right now is that your pain is being managed properly by a physician and you're not abusing....feel good about that....anyway, don't be a stranger....too many people miss you!! :-)

I know I came in here the first time in January and I would read and cry and get so scared , then I posted my first question, but I saw so many ppl like that and I always wonder.

anyways just thinking

I agree with Confused..it just may be easier to get off the oxy than the sub when it is time..( i have never used either one) but just from what I think I understand about sub..anyway..please don't stay away..there are many in your situation..try to not let negative responses get to you..I think sometimes we all forget how truly sensitive of a subject this all is for everyone..we are all in different stages of addiction/recovery/depression..etc it come with the territory..I think most people wish everyone the best..To me it is kinda like when someone quits smoking..x-smokers are the most adamant about it..u know?  and sometimes borderline obnoxious..but they really do mean well..did that make sense? i wish you the best too,

I am not around much anymore because I was going to get on Sub and then the DR wanted me to try his pain management before trying it, and that was the only way the insurance would work as well. So here I am taking three of the 80mg Oxycontin per day now. At least I am doing it legally and not spending our life savings on pills anymore.. I know one day I will have to come off, but it just isn't today.  Plus I hate all the negativity I get when people ask about my situation and I am honest.  So better for me to just stay away.

AWESOME STUFF FOR EVERYONE DOING IT..

KEEP UP THE FIGHT..

YOU CAN DEFINATELY DO IT!!!
