just realized...

one year ago... the week before thanksgiving... i checked myself into inpatient detox... and today, i'm taking the step again... hoping this time will take.

i have been avoiding any other kind of migraine medication, because it doesnt get me high.

today, i will manage this. i will get help, and do things the right way.

Best of luck to you! I hope that everything works out for you! I know, this time last year, I was still sneaking around, smoking crack. Standing up my boyfriend, hiding from my friends and family. Spending every dollar I got. Just to get high. I was completely out of my mind crazy. Lying, stealing..Making up the craziest stories just to get the focus off my crack use.. Ugh..
My clean date didn't stick until February of 09, but when I look back to what I was doing this time, last year, and what I get to do next week.. OMG! I feel like a superstar! And I am projects poor. LOL.
My boyfriend is taking me with him to Florida next week. I can hardly wait!
And while you may not end up making plans for an autumn/winter vacation, you MAY, or you may be making even better plans, celebrating your clean time and how much better your life is without abusing drugs!
I really want this for you! I hope you want it too! MORE so than me! :ghug3

Hang tough Ellie, the first day can be rough, esp. if you didn't wait about 18-24 hours since your last dose of oxys. I've gotten onto subs numerous times, and I always took them too soon, so ...

Anyways, usually about 24 hours after my last oxy is about when the subs started making me feel much better. You should be there by now or close to it. How much they have you on?
