Day 9 and took 2 percocets

Ok, so I did Roxys for 2 1/2 years. Last month I used 10mg methadones to prevent detox. Once those ran out I had no choice. I have no steady connects down here. I don't go looking. However today I was offered two 7.5mg. I didn't get high. Sorta felt normal. Now I'm wondering how far I've set myself back. I never ever take percocets or lortab recreationally. I never felt them. The only thing they did was make me a little more optimistic about my depressing situation. No it won't happen again because it was a coincidence. Just wondering if I'm going to start over?

I hope tomo isn't horrible, honestly I needed the reboots of motivation and energy. It reminded me of feeling optimistic again. I needed that. Now I'm ready to go back and keep staying clean.

HI ......as long as you keep putting narcotics in your body your setting yourself back .....it is the brain that needs to heal and as long as it has artificial endorphins going in it wont produce it own all intake must stop no mater how bad you feel coming off the methadone wont be ez but it is doable good luck and God bless.......Gnarly

Your right gnarly. My depression was reaching an extreme. Actually today I got out the house went grocery shipping met new ppl. So maybe the happiness wasn't only the Percs. I dunno but I won't slip again. I'm sorry. I guess now I'm going to have to start from day 1 again.
