Day 5! The worst of the purely physical withdrawal seems to be over. Now I have to watch out for thinking that since I can stop, it's ok to start up again. That's insane, of course, but that's he way we think. I'm going to a meeting today. That's where I get reminders about how the insanity works. It's always there, looking for a way to get the drug. I remember even when I was talking with my doctor about how I would detox and he offered librium to help me through it, I thought "Great. Whatever I don't take I can stash away in case I need a little something." I caught myself thinking that way and tore up the prescription as soon as I got out of the office. I'm trying to do everything I can to out-trick the insanity of this disease. Good luck to all.
