Phils...so great to see you doing well. There are sooo many weird things that happen to us after we quit winning. As said in the Big Book, alcohol and drugs are cunning, baffling and powerful. I had lots of using dreams. Sometimes they would be the actual use, others it would be getting in trouble for using and so on and so forther. The acutually using ones used to make me bitchy in the mornings. The other things that brothered me were waking up and feeling like you had a hangover. I just absoluetley HATE that feeling. If I am going to feel crappy I at least want the drug or alcohol to go along with it.

I am so happy for you and hope that you continue to stay upbeat during this time. It is a HUGE thing everyday to get off drugs and alcohol. On the down days your head and thinking can get to you. Sometimes it takes all your effort to stay positive....just remember how far you have come already. WOW...jumped from the addict bus and ran away!
Awesome for you!

I love this posting...."Don't quit 5 minutes before a miracle".
