Just wanted to check in and let everyone know I am a little over a month clean ..I feel great .I got a job on the weekends. .. I have deleted all the negative people in my life even though they kept calling me from different numbers I finally just had to be mean and tell them to leave me alone ..I think they have got the point hopefully ..hope everyone is doing good and staying clean .Have a blessed day and thanks for all the support. .I will keep everyone posted on how I am doing ..
Good to hear from you and that you are still clean!!! Congrats on the clean time AND the new wkend job.
What have you done about all your "old connects" calling you and coming around? Have you lined up any counseling or aftercare of any kind?
If we continue to hang around others that use addictive substances after we get clean, the chances are about 99.9% that we will too. Hope you can find some new playmates that value recovery.

Feeling a little better today still have little to no energy and not sleeping well can't wait to be able to have a semi normal day .. my anxiety has been pretty bad the last couple of days and today especially. .
Good for you!!! What you did over the last few days is amazing! You know that you won't feel great right away but it will continue to get better from here. Now that you have blocked numbers and are cutting off sources, it's time to make new friends who can help and support you. Are there NA meetings available in your area?
Thank u everyone for the advice and sharing ..today I feel a little better the cold chills and hot flashes are not constant but sleeping is still hard.I still have no energy .last night was hard because my dealer texted me I explained I was done and blocked his number the temptation was so hard I have had to distance myself from my so called friends that keep calling cause I'm not strong enough to be around them ...I hope to feel better soon ...
I have personally given up on trying to reestablish my " old normal." Not only do I not know exactly what that was, but that style of thinking caused me to binge over and over. For years, with booze, benzos, and most recently opiates.
These days, I am content to build a "new normal," that includes my recovery program, and a whole new way of thinking about a lot of things.

"I don't even know what normal is", great statement. I've been in a program for 13 years and I hear that from almost everyone including me. Fact is that after years or even months of using and abusing we have no idea what normal is.

Hello and welcome. Right now, at 5 days, u should be right in the thick of it. Here are a few things that helped me with body.temp, crawling out of my skin, stomach "problems", and general garbage feeling:
Epsom salts for hot baths. Took 3/4 a day and it did help!
Good Multivitamins
Emergen C packets
L-tyrosine and Gaba 750 - GNC
Motrin!!!!!
Protein shakes - dehydration will make it much worse.
I jumped off subs at 16mg on Jan 1, 2014 and am still clean today! 4 1/2 mths later. This can be done u just need to hunker down at do it! Rest, don't make plans to have to go anywhere, and remember, u can't put drugs in your body for years and think that in 5/6 days all will be right as rain (I thought this till I actually did it!) And it was ********! Time, time and patience which I know ***** to hear but u can do this! Post when u feel like **** and keep us up to date on how your doing. Good luck!

I know. We all just want to feel normal again but feeling normal without being a slave to opiates is what we really want and need right. The good news is that you will feel better but not right away. If you have been without anything for three days things are at their worst and begin improving soon. Many here swear by the Thomas Recipe. Someone more familiar with it will join your post soon and tell you more about. Hang in there. Keep posting often. God Bless!
I am with you! All I want is to feel normal. I don't even know what normal is. I am on day 4 and physically feel pretty good other then a little weak. I was taking oxys and hydros. So your withdrawls might last longer. I am taking L-tyrosine and vitamin b complex. Got them both at the health food store. They seem to help. I am also drinking lots of water. I took three full days off work. Have to go back tomorrow. But I think that will be a good thing. From everything I have read, everyone is different. You can do this! We are in this together. My whole goal is to just feel normal, I just want to be ok.
I was snorting the herion and taking the pills at the same time when i couldnt find one I would rely on the other . I was taking morphine 30 twice a day along with the her ion when I couldn't find them I would use the perks 10 ..i live in a small town and it is so easy to find I just want to feel normal again..
