Pact ... Glad things are looking so good for you! Use that as your motivation to keep going and to not give up. I was the same way you were couldn't function if I didn't have it... And I spent my whole day worrying and trying to figure out If I was gonna get my fix for day.. It's scary when you start to come out of the fog and look at how your life slowly fell apart ... And here you are stuck trying to figure out where to begin to try to piece if back together ... You have a beautiful life in front of you ... Don't forget that.

Congrats on your clean time. Get yourself busy, old hobbies,new hobbies, meetings, do some cleaning, get job hunting, go to church, exercise,
Volunteer.
Your mind and body need to stay busy. Idle time is the devil's workshop.
Keep moving forward.
Do a new thing this time to help prevent relapse.
Keep the faith.

Well on day 5 yeah! This is part I hate I'm sitting here going crazy when I've seen What the pills have done . I feel lost no job no interests left just think things to keep my mind busy. It's very overwhelming this is where I have failed before
