Well last night wasn't too bad no symptoms of sweating, restlessness, anxiety, sneezing. The only symptoms left is a minor back ache, diluted pupils, and trouble staying asleep when I do sleep. 11pm-12am one hour of sleep, 2:30am-3:30am another hour of sleep, and around 6:30am-9:00am another 2.5 hours of sleep. I'm currently at 67 hours without any opiates and the first 48 hours were rough, so I may have just peaked around that time. I'll keep updating I'll do another update at the 72 hour mark.

It will get better. The sneezing...it'll stop soon. The emotions will go away eventually...or you could attack them and make them go away by putting yourself in situations you wouldn't be in..exercise..in public..doing something with your girlfriend. Like I said, massive post, other thread of yours.. you cannot miss it. I mean, I even brought music to the post.
Stay positive brother, I'm right here with you.

alright guys 99 hours into my opiate detox, and im feeling pretty good physically other than being exhausted for lack of sleep. Actually headed to a meeting right now because i feel like its necessary and i need to realize never to stop going because everytime that ive stopped my meetings i always end up relapsing right back into withdrawals. Im actually tired of being sick and tired. Lets pray and thank God for my accomplishment because one i couldnt do it without the people he put in my life through this forum, and him for always saving my butt. So credit goes to GOD on my recovery. Alright guys ill keep you guys updated and will remain hopeful that the sleep is also on its way tonight

so proud of you.. my hubby was at the Doc yesterday.. they can see the change in him that has gone for the positive.. yep.. you can do this . and You will be better.. its a long hard road .. but when your laughter comes back you will see the change yourself....
I have been watching some programs on Elvis and his health and drug problems.. 42 he passed at 42 ..because back in 1977 we just had no idea what was happening to the person on all of the meds.. and his Doc's gave them out like candy... what we know now and all of us to help support the recovery and give insight to what is happening to each other or family..
prayers and love and hope for a better tomorrow.. ardy wisconsin

hey thanks for the encouraging words. I was just letting the past use me, but its time the devil pays, because no longer I'm ashamed of my past, i will use it against him to help those suffering. I'm a firm believer of God and devil will pay every time this time .... no longer will i ever have to suffer but use my experience to give testimony for those suffering.... I'm feeling really good this morning first time feeling happy in a long time.
