Through It All, I Have Come To Realize I Am A Strong Woman! For 2 yrs, my husband and I have been addicted to pain killers, Roxys and OC's was our DOC. We probably went through $20,000 over those yrs. We lost our home, our vehicle, and our friendship. My husband and I were best friends, inseperable. Through all the drug use, we lost what we were all about, our minds consumed of how are we going to get this? Where are we going to get it at? If I could take that first time I snorted that pill, I would. They take control over your life, your mind, who YOU really are!
Thursday, April 29th was our last pill. We have been clean for 5 days. I can honestly say that I will never touch one of those "little blue devils" AGAIN. It has been the most horrbile 5 days of my life. From the severe body aches, cold chills, sweats, restless leg, headaches, I felt like I couldn't move...like I was really dying! I had the worst depression, cried all the time, then I had the cravings, I thought to myself just one won't hurt anything...it will make me feel better! BUT I kept saying no no no! I was so scared, the main thing I was worried about was how do I act sober? I couldn't remember who I USED to be.
5 days later, and I feel AWESOME! I am so proud of myself! I Made it through all of this! I stayed so strong, so determined! Needless to say, I will never in my life touch one of those pills again! No matter how bad my life may be, or how stressed I am, I made it this far...those no turning back now!! <3

Welcome, may God open your eyes to see we are weak but He is strong! Step one is the most important concept to allow soak into your heart.
"We admitted we were powerless over alcohol (drugs)—that our lives had become
unmanageable."
It sounds like you embrace that concept.
Go ahead and study the other 11. Get in a group of people going through the same thing you are.
I wish you great sucess!!This is A great place for help and advice, keep coming back. Congrats on 5 days!!
