I grabbed 7 hrs of sleep yay!! I changed a lot of things on my life and after tomorrow I start MY life, really excited.. After that bad cold the w/d is nothing to me now, God works in mysterious ways, but I know he had to yell at me but it worked lol, I'm walking away from a family member cause she's mad I won't let her move in... I tried to explain but she has no ears for me right now. But it's the best for me, so starting tomorrow I will live for me now and what makes me happy and my bestest hubby. Wow this is what peace is. Thank you all for advice and courage. Remember when your most down there no where but up.. And when it rains it pours but remember what makes flowers grow :)

She said I broke promises... I feel I have done all I can do so now I'm closing a door lets hope she doesn't make me lock it, when talking to my mom my uncle ( by marriage not blood) grabs the phone and she we are coming Saturday to get the rest of her stuff, I said fine... But I'm going threw everything today and dropping off tomorrow...I guess the my point is I have realized a mother should never do this to her children... I have no kids so u know lol... But I'm sober and see a light brighter than ever.. Yes I am alil angry but anger used the right way can be a great power. It's my life, my turn to live, and with the one who does love me the most. Thank you all for support, and I'm back down to earth, looking at my beautiful life knowing God blessed me and many more to come. Ill try to keep posted but I think I have it from here... Wish me luck tomorrow :) hubby coming with so no fighting I hope.. Hubby better not either :/ he not happy with uncle lol, think about calling my bro in just in case to be a middle:) thanks again to all.

Well feeling better with the very bad cold I had, lol now since the cold is gone w/d isn't so bad.... Lol not funny it does suck but today I did have to close a door.. It's sad but I've explained in earlier post.. I told my mom NO more I have to stay away a week ago I guess it was, days running together you know how it is, well she had my uncle call me this morning... And asked what I did to her yesterday and see yesterday she had her pain doc appt. and I told her I'm having the pharmacy delever it.... But at the appt I sat in car let her do her thing, then I gave her all her insurance cards , id, all that to show my brain body and my life is different now, and I'm married now he is my first and only, I did what I could for her... We lost a home we were 3 yrs from payoff cause she would not go to hospital.. Sorry I know I'm venting but I'm mad.... And my uncle had the nerve to call me at 10 am and asked why I'm leaving... He has no idea what I did for this woman. She is alive because of me not anyone else....no help from anyone, sister brother... Not even mom... She OD 4 months ago and I put her in a nursing home. Some how she got her way and is out... And wants to live with me I said NO.... My turn to try to live.. Well she crying to me now saying u br

You should be very proud of yourself. What you did took a lot of inner strength and fortitude. You are doing really well, just give it time. When you take opiates for a long time like you have, your body's physiology has been altered. Your central nervous system has created a multitude of opioid receptors that all are screaming for endorphins (opiates) to fill them, but your body has now forgotten how to make them by itself.  It will take time - two to four weeks at least, for your receptors to down-regulate (for the brain begin to heal) and to start making its own endorphins. Brain heals pretty slowly, so it may take you as long as a couple of months to get rid of feelings of sluggishness, restlessness and depression. The best thing you can do is take good care of yourself, eat healthy food, stay hydrated, keep active and busy. Stay away from sugar, soda, and simple carbs. Do not consume caffeine at least 6 hours prior to bedtime. Take care of yourself and look ahead.
