New and 30 days sober

Hi
I'm an prescription opiate addict. I just got out of an inhouse rehab Monday afternoon. I had used for almost 3 years oxy, roxys, and xanax. All from my Dr following a spinal fusion surgery. I stopped cold turkey on the Sept 3rd and went into rehab on the 6th. I had no ideal my recovery would be so intense. I'm glad I found somewhere to come and get some support. thx

Thank you everyone who replied. Your warm welcome was wonderful. Today was my son's 5th birthday and thank God that I was here to share it with him. I know if I had continued to use I might have not been. I've had too many night where I laid in bed and thought I really did to many pills. I wonder if I'll wake up tomorrow. I'm glad to say now I'm looking foward to the future and really treating myself with some kindness and respect finally.
