Good morning USA,
Day 15 and I feel great!! I am so much happier without the pills. It's so funny looking back when I was taking them I had to have them to be happy and then it got to the point where my addiction depressed me b/c of the amount I was taking and I realized I had a major problem. (1o lortab 10's a day and sometimes more) I lived 2-3 months in that state of mind and the longer it went on, the worse I felt about myself. That's when I went CT. I will never forget the hell of detox. During that dt time all I could think was I'll never be happy again. Wrong!!!! I am happier without the pills than with them. I can honestly say that. I like "normal" and I'm getting more normal every day. So for anyone out there that thinks you will never be happy, just give it a chance, be determined and you to will see life on the other side is wonderful. It doesn't take a long time either. You will feel like it is taking forever while in dt, but I'm only day 15, feeling great and 15 days is much better than the whole year and a half of taking the pills. I still have trouble sleeping at times, but that's o.k. I know it will only get better. My depression has leveled out, my mood is stable now and I'm just on top of the world right now. I know that in time normal will set in and that's fine with me too!! I will embrace that day, because that is healthy!!!!! I used to be there, so I already know what normal is. I'm now ready to go back to work, just have to find a job!! Hope all of you out there are staying strong and determined. And remember............ one pill is too much and 10,000 will never be enough!! (Thanks Cupp!) I tell myself that a lot. Til later my friends Jamie
