one week!!!!!!

thanks to the help and support of those here, alot of prayer, one meeting a day, and my own desire to quit no matter how bad it got, i havent used for 7 days!!!! 8 days ago i never would have thought it was possible. i feel great and to think that if i continue to work my program, it will only get better. i was taking 30-40 painkillers a day for the last 6 years. if i can do it anyone can. thanks to all for the support. i know a week isnt long, but to me its a minor miracle. its a small step but never the less a very important one. i realize from reading here that not everyone believes in going to meetings and working the steps, but for myself its the only way and i mean the only thing that has helped me stay clean. along with the great support that i have recieved from this site, i consider this site a part of my program to stay clean, i know that i'll never have to use again. for this im very grateful. im convinced that i could not have done it on my own. believe me ive tried before and rarely made it 7 hours let alone 7 days. i know that a week is not very long but its the best start ive ever had, and i owe it all to you guys. thanks. heres to another day clean!!!!

one week is fantastic!!!!!!good job....keep it up...i began to have trouble with painkillers and this place saved me before it got bad...if i had not found sr i would still be taking vicoden everyday and escalating more and more...i couldn't stop and this place gave me the courage to admit that i had a problem before it was too late....you should be so proud of yourself....
